amazing in every aspect

When I first heard of the Godfather, I thought it would be like other movies made in the 1970's-boring, bad actors, and cheesy all around.
I was very wrong.
This movie gives us a taste of what organized crime was like back in the 1940s and 50s. The cast is incredible, the acting is above average, and the movie itself makes it hard to believe that it made it's debut in 1972.
It also gives us an unforgettable line from Marlon Brando that is now known throughout the world- "I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse."
To call this movie overrated is a real shame; it is (in my opinion and in many others) the greatest 'mafia movie' ever made. Mario Puzzo and Francis Ford Coppola should be very proud men after making a movie of this caliber.
