The Very Best Movie Made that Stars Marlon Brando, James Caan, Richard Castellano Robert Duvall, Sterling Hayden...Ever...I Mean Ever

Rating: 10/10 (17 May 2016)

So this movie is only number two out of 250 of the greatest movies ever made – whatsa-matta wid u? Dis movie should be numba one; along wid "Goodfellas" and "Casino." Yeah – dats right, dey all gotta be numba ones; numba twos is for losers. Time to make offers dey can't refuse; clean da horse-heads out a-da bed and load up dat ole John J. Bartek moving van – we gotta settle dis – once and for all. OK, maybe I am going a little over the top, but before the Corleone family hit the cinemas, there really wasn't much spattering screens that defined what went on behind closed doors in 'The Cosa Nostra'; 'The Mafia'; 'The Family' or whatever these folks are known as. From the time Mario Puzo's pen first bled ink onto an empty pages, who would have guessed a masterpiece was about to be born. By the time Coppola's finishing touches on this creation, there could hardly be any doubt. This cinematographic brilliance known as, 'The Godfather' is a story hard to beat. There are those who say the movie is 'overrated'...to them...I say 'Go Watch "The Birdman."' Haters are just going to hate like a bunch of crybaby haters. "The Godfather's", writing and script are superb; the acting and cast is outstanding and the saga's story-line is unmatched, what else is needed? I like the pace and depth. No super villains and no super cops...just Mob vs. Mob vs. Mob...I love it. Anyways – watch this when you can - or if you haven't already. You are encouraged to come to your own conclusion using sound judgment. And remember...if you don't mark this as numba one you will want to reconsider – at least that's if you know what's good for you.
