Great expectation, greatest Masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (6 March 2020)

Where should I start? When I first saw this movie I was already in a mindset that I would enjoy it, because everyone was saying that this movie was great and blala. So I had huge expectations for the quality of the movie. I ignored the fact that I didn't like old movies very much so I bought the Trilogy Collection Box as soon as I had the opportunity. I bought the box and I drove home focused in watch the movie right away. I didn't. I only watch the movie a year or so after I bought it, because I'm an experienced procrastinator, even to the things that I like to do.
A year after I bought it I was seated in my coach in front of the tv thinking what should I do to entertain myself. There was nothing good playing in the cable so I go to my dvd collection hidden inside some furniture that my mums mum (my grandmother) had offered to my mother. And there it was. The Godfather Collection Box. I thought to myself "ok, there must be time to watch it" so i took out the dvd and, as I was going to put it in the dvd player I note the fact that I don't own a dvd player. "What an idiot" I thought to myself.
After that I realized that my old computer has a dvd player and I proceed to the movie viewing in an old computer with an even older screen. I have to admit that the hardware quality was not good enough for the masterpiece that I was about to see, but it was the only way.
The movie starts and I my mind is blown away by the brilliance of every detail. Marlon Brando, an actor that I never heard about it (sorry, I was an ignorant back then), was simply brilliant in every scene. Al Pacino, James Caan and Robert Duvall as well. Dammit! Why didn't I watched this movie early in my life? The movie goes on with that amazing soundtrack and I was even more in love with this masterpiece. I almost cried when Sonny died, and after that when Don Corleone died as well. The horse scene and those that precede it are again, you guess it, brilliant (sorry, my english is not brilliant but who are you to judge it? do you know portugues? Cause I do!).
In the end, I thought to myself "okay, I reached the peak of quality for the movies that I can watch". But I didn't, because then I watched the Godfather Part II.
