It ruled. It's a movie about the Italian-American mafia, set in the 1940s and '50s. This comes strongly recommended. There's also a sequel which some movie buffs consider even better.

I think Casino and Goodfellas are way better. The literal mafia had consultants on the set of this movie making sure they propped these greaseball ginzos up to look honorable. At least Scorsese had the balls to call a spade a spade.

Perfect shit. Last time I flew to Japan I watched The Godfather, The Godfather II and Goodfellas back to back. They watched pretty fucking good for about the 100th time even on a shitty business class screen. Still had to watch Witness and an episode of Always Sunny just to fill up the time of that godawful flight though.

Has anyone watched “The Offer” series about making it? Haven’t heard much. It’s interesting to look at what the studio wanted casting wise compared to what Coppola wanted. They wanted Burt Reynolds for Sonny, Ernest Borgnine for Don Corleone, etc. Producer Robert Evans famously said “THAT ITALIAN MIDGET WILL NEVER BE IN THIS MOVIE” referring to Al Pacino.

They really could have done some trick shots to make that scene not so bad. Maybe some quick cuts of him but focus on the daughter watching while you hear him beating the guy up. The whole point of the scene was his daughter realizing he’s not a “good guy” so just her watching with fight sounds would have worked. But they fucked it up.

I haven't, I heard it's not particularly good. Could have been fascinating though considering all the bullshit FFC had to go through to get it where he wanted it.

I really like the movie overall but it's insane they didn't just do a "through the window" shot of that scene. All the problems with that picture could have been solved by just finessing things like that a little bit.

Godfather III is one of the worst films I ever seen. I get more enjoyment out of nonsense like Waterworld or Con Air. Because at least I can lower my expectations. But having 'Godfather' in your title after I and II should mean the highest quality of film. I cannot believe how bad part III was still to this day. The helicopter shooting scene still makes me laugh every time how absurd it is.

Despite your ironic Norm McDonald larp, I agree wholeheartedly. Fantastic film.

He is predictable:
"Watched Good Burger (1995). It ruled. What a spectacle. Can't think of another movie right now that's its equal except for The French Connection (1971). Probably the best movie set during the 90s 'screwball comedy' era... Going to re-watch Platoon (1986) soon.

Quite the opposite. I'm going to review a movie called The Shining (1980). It's been directed by Stanley Kubrick.
