Review of The Godfather (1972) by Tyler S — 27 May 2014
The greatest gangster crime movie possibly ever made. The movie has been regarded as an all time great. Going in if I knew nothing of the hype I would consider it a masterpeice. Each character displays their roles so well you believe these people are who they are.
From Robert Duvalls masterful business like persona, to Vitos brilliant leadership demeanor, to Michaels wonderful transition from war hero to family boss, this movie all around is beautiful. It's 3 hour run time is long ideed but the direction is flawless, and the editing is perfect as a perfect amount of time is spent on each important scene and never stretched too long.
The movie just flows well together. While the story is great, the director and the actors are the real geniuses here, as they play their part to absolute perfection.
