Better than the original

Rating: Null/10 (7 July 1999)

Possibly the only sequel better than the original. And one the the greatest 20 movies ever made.
A more complex storyline than the original. The follows the rise of the father and the fall of the son. Many themes are explored, probably most importantly the dehumanizing effect of greed and lust for power.
Beautifully acted all around.
A wonderful 200 minutes of cinema. An A+.
