A movie to surpass the first one.

Rating: 10/10 (6 January 2016)

The Godfather was excellent, so I was of course unsure about the second movie, but after watching it I can finally confirm it as being even better than the first.
The movie is about Michael Corleone's struggle to keep his mob family together. Therer is also another story within the movie, about Vito Corleone. Michael's dad. These scenes act sort of like prequels. The story about Michael takes place in the late fifties whilst the story about Vito takes place during the nineteen twenties.
Vito is played by Robert Deniro and Michael is played by Al Pacino. Both actors do a stellar job at portraying their roles and making them as likable as possible.
The cinematography is stellar and so is the writing and acting.
No one movie can be perfect but I think this is as close as we are going to get.
