an epic almost as great as its predecessor, the godfather - part ii presents the viewers with two equally engaging storylines that are well intercut. al pacino helms the first with a performance even greater than in the first film, and de niro helms the second with almost as much gravitas and depth as brando. the directing is less subtle than the first film, and offers a lot of beautiful shots and great cinematography. read more

amerikansisiliaisten auktoriteetti puree. toiminta laajenee ja siirtyy. uudella pomolla ei ole lärvi turvoksissa. kahteen aika-kauteen jakautuva klassikko. toisessa jatketaan siitä mihin ygösessä jäätiin, toisessa tsekkaillaan miten projekti on alunperin lähtenyt skulaa. read more

Man do I love this one. I haven't watched it in forever so a lot of the situations got to play out almost for the first time.

esse filme por sua vez parece maior, nao so porque é mais longo. é dois filmes em um. que filme melancolico this movie does feel bigger, and not because of the lengthier time. its 2 movies in one. and what a melancholic movie read more

Somehow seems even more stylish and sprawling and deep than the first, and while Michael once again organises a series of hits and comes out on top, he's even more cold and menacing than he was in the first movie. read more

When Kay points out that Michael had promised to go legitimate in 5 years time, and that was 7 years ago, to her it is a cry for help. To him it's an indication (and a condemnation) of his failure as a husband, father, and patriarch. read more
