I saw the movie 'Godfather' recently. I have heard many news and comments for this movie however until today I haven't seen this movie. I have to admit that this movie is excellent and what makes it brillent is not only the godfather part1 but also the following continuation part2 and part3. The all three parts integrate into the complete one. The part1 only introduce the start of a new godfather and a death of the old godfather. Although Al Pacino's performance is quite great, the performance of his father- Marlon Brando is superior than his- That's just my private thought. Maybe that's due to the time of the movie is too short for Al to actor but it's dfficult to blame for that becuase the movie wanna model the characteristic of Al who don't wanna inherit the family business forced to do so. If the movie focus on Al too much then the audience will soon realize the importance of Al and won't pay attention to the performance of Marlon. So I think that the continuation cannot help to actor becuase too many stories should be told.
First, the rising of old godfather and whole family and second, the following stories of new godfather both need to be stated. So we can see the Godfather part2 introduces the both stories. To explain that new godfather- Macheal memorize those stories of his father, I'd rather believe that the director wanna organize the whole story and introduce to the audience. The part2 is excellent because of the combination of the current time and old time.
I am not a professional movie reviewer but I can see the significant skill of the director. Francis Ford Coppola, who is the great diector of Godfather, usually uses door to represent some prospects. Such as in the part1, Macheal had a serious quarrel with his wife-Kay. After that, Kay went to another room to get some wine and wanted to recover the relationship between them. However, one man just came in and closed the door. This also means the interruption of relationship between them. Moreover, in part2, when Kay came to see their children, Macheal just closed the door and also end the their relationship in person. In part3, Macheal assigned Vincent to be the next godfather and left to another room. That means that he formally gave up the power of godfather and the end of his reponsibility.
After all, this is a nice movie.I strongly recommand this movie to be the top 5 of worth-looking flim.
