Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
... View MoreGood movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .
... View MoreA Masterpiece!
... View MoreThe film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
... View MoreI re watched this recently, and just shook my head. Putting aside the overacting that border-lined on caricature, and many poor attempts at creating "atmosphere", The Last Don II made the unforgivable omission of having little to no focus on eating! This is a crucial element to any mob movie, any movie about Italian-American culture in general for that matter.Where were the sausage and peppers,the spaghetti with the "Sunday gravy"? How could this be omitted. Meals are also an important element of setting someone up to be whacked. In movies, and historically, wise guys are often "hit" while sitting down to dinner. This is part of the reason so much gusto goes into eating; because a wise guy knows that any meal may be his last, so, one may as well enjoy that meal to its fullest!On another note, I found it amusing just how Canadian this production was. I didn't need to see the CN Tower in the background, or to read the credits. As a Canadian who has grown up watching many lukewarm tax credited productions, you can just tell!
... View MoreI am. and always will bee a huge fan of Mafia movies; it has always been a way of life in the world. All these people saying these movies are an insult to Italians everywhere are ignorant. That is why we have movies, to do on screen and to watch things which reality will sometimes not allow us to do in real life! The Last Don and it's sequel are well worth the time to watch these movies. Do you think that real mobsters always looked like mobsters in real life? Hell, look at Anthony Spilotro. He was only 5 feet 6 inches tall and weighed 165 pounds! He was the Chicago Outfit's most notorious hit-man, but he didn't look like it! Anyway, anyone who hasn't had the chance to see these two great movies should do so!
... View MoreIf you're the sort of sick pervert who enjoys lurid depictions of terrified victims suffering horrific deaths, yet quails at the sight of blood, this is just the sort of cr** you're looking for; knifings, suffocations and strangulations galore, cutting "discreetly" away from the doomed victim and going to commercial as they are murdered. Ugh. Beyond that, it has no value whatsoever. "Mafia fans" have got to be the lowest rung on the Evolutionary Ladder.
... View MoreSo real, so vitality, so absorbing movie! The Mario Puzo's characters live with us. Don, Cross de Lena, Dante, uncle Georgio.... they became the part of our life. This film make us to take thought.
