    a lot of people will say this is a masterpiece, and you know what, i won’t argue with them. but really this is a lesson from francis ford coppola about how young al pacino and young robert de niro are hot

    This is for part I and part II, just to be cheat. I said it before, i thought i was just too young to understand. But after rewatching at this age, and i still not a big fan. Gosh, i was supposed to love it, i mean this is peak of Al Pacino, i just expecting too much. Edited: Or maybe i love it okay, idk mann.

    Watched this with a glass of wine, some pasta, a cigar, slicked back hair, and a polo on at 11pm on a Friday night. The way god intended. It felt brutal, it felt historical, and everything felt purposeful. It comes across like a true love letter to Italy and Italian Americans in a twisted kind of way. And despite a 3 hr run time I was captivated the whole time. It helps that it really didn’t hold any punches back,…

    Should have watched the parts closer together but I did enjoy this one. I really sat when I could to watch this since I didn’t do it justice last time. Slower and more predictable than the first but still a fun time.

    I finally watched it! I don’t know. I’ll probably have to revisit this one, I enjoyed it but to be honest was a bit underwhelmed. Mostly struggled with the rise of Don Vito feeling rushed. Maybe next time I will be more properly whelmed.

    wattsupdog 8 月 20, 2026

    I liked it but not as much as the first. The plot was dense and difficult to follow. The absolute shadows of the lighting choices I actually found frustrating because I couldn’t see much. Certainly a darker film both metaphorically and literally than the first.

    Nejc Sušin 8 月 19, 2026

    The first film is better. But it took me two movies and some thinking afterwards to really put the picture together. Who would’ve thought that when I first watched The Godfather at 15 years old I understood fuck all of it. Watching Vito’s origin story I came to understand that when he talked about family he was being sincere. He was a cold-blooded killer, yes. But for him, growing up alone, protecting his new family was legitimately the first priority.…

    Con esta si que conecté. Que maravilla. Abraza todo lo bueno de la primera parte y lo hace aún mejor. Me parece un acierto descomunal que optasen por contar el pasado de Vito y está muy bien llevado (en parte gracias a un increíble Robert de Niro, capaz de llegar a la majestuosidad de Marlon Brando en la primera película), la transformación de Michael en uno de los grandes jefes de la mafia es perfecta. El acto final con la escena de la barca en el lago te deja pensando, sin palabras.

    Por muy poco no esta a la misma altura que la primera, y aun asi es de lo mejor que haya visto en toda mi vida. Hace todo bien y mejora ciertos aspectos, pero no le alcanzo para igualar a su antecesora
