Never a dull moment in this brilliant film.

Rating: Null/10 (11 March 2002)

Godfather 2 is an incredible movie. Francis Ford Coppola has done an expert job of continuing and expanding upon the story of the first film, adding an incredible amount of detail and information that requires repeat viewing. The incorporation of the story chronicling the early life of Vito Corleone who goes from a grocery store errand boy to the local crime boss is fascinating and revealing, and seems to parallel the life of MIchael Corleone as he tries to juggle and strategize in his quest to further expand and legitimize his empire.
Great nuanced performances from Robert De Niro (as the young Vito Corleone), Al Pacino, Lee strasburg (who expertly portrays the crafty and aging Hyman Roth), John Cazale and Diane Keaton further enliven this inspired film. Subtle and full of feeling, they bring incredible amount of depth to their performances. Check out Robert De Niro and Al Pacino especially, they are amazing to watch.
If you haven't seen this classic film, do so by all means.
