The Godfather is the best movie EVER. The way that Michael Corleone never intends to help the “family business” but ends up realizing after he has an opportunity to help out, that he is involved for good, and from then on becomes as involved as his father (The Godfather). The family is not bad, as long as people respect them and don’t stand in their way. The setting of the Godfather films: from Sicily, Italy, to New York, to Las Vegas, pre-Revolution Cuba, Hollywood, and more, really make the viewer feel they are in that time and place. I continue to seek gangster films better that the Godfather…but NOTHING compares!!! This is the best movie in American Film History.
