Wonderful character development!

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

The acting in this movie is really good.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

This is the best film made ever. To learn and to understand how to make good movies The Godfather is the best movie ever that nobody filmed until now except Coppola. A perfect cinematic scenes, locations, art designs, wardrobe, plot, role acting, direction, art department, script, etc. This film has all the ingredients to know how to make a brilliant good film. Unfortunately knowing all of these parts too many people adding structural parts of the movies and making with all these ingredients didn't make a movie as Francis Ford Coppola made.

After all the hype people have given this movie and the fact it won Best Picture confuses me.Most of it was just people sitting around talking. There were some good actiony scenes but they are few and far between, aside from Sonny's sister flipping her lid and smashing up the house, followed by the famous tollbooth scene a few minutes later.Speaking of the house-smashing scene, it's meant to be dramatic but I burst out laughing, but that's just my morbid sense of humor.Maybe I'm just not "getting it" and my head is up where the sun doesn't shine, but this movie was just...... kinda boring for me.

There have been numerous Crime/Drama films that chronicle the lives of a Mafia family or certain outcast 'wiseguys', but none of them leave an impression as deep as the one left by The Godfather. That is because The GF isn't JUST a crime/drama, it rises above a genre, it's about family. The transformation of Michael Corleone is one of the greatest character stories in cinema history, from the reluctant family outsider to the ruthless mafia boss, about how the least involved son is forced to take over his fathers' empire. The intricacies in the storytelling, the twists in the plot get you every time. It makes these thugs seem not like dim-witted robbers, but suit-clad businessmen. This movie has managed to start up a legacy, a cult. The sheer power of it leaves one speechless and spellbound and perhaps that is why it is the greatest that celluloid has to offer.
