    Godfather is great. Everyone says so.




    It’s slow and boring.

    The same crowd who says “woody Allan is a genius”

    Woody Allen movies are gay. Godfather 1 and 2 are the GOAT.

    This isn’t hard.
    The hipster dufus crowd disagrees.

    Godfather movies are slow. As it was pointed out, was common for that era. Simple fact.

    If I watch any Godfather movie I have to enjoy it sans adult beverage. Or it’s nighty night.

    Brian's Song is boomer legend

    Cry like a bitch during Brian’s Song

    Should be required viewing instead of this critical race bullshit.

    Godfather is too. Goodfellas and Casino are way more entertaining movies.
    Might be the dumbest shit any Asian has ever said.

    I could never get into the Godfather. Tried watching it twice. Both times, after about 30 min into it or so, I just found myself not caring about the characters, as they were completely unrelatable, and seemed very shallow and one dimensional. Plus, I had already seen several other Mafia movies that came out afterwards, so a lot of the Mafia elements of the Godfather seemed cliche and lame.Though I do understand that The Godfather set the standard. But standards schmandards.... I'd rather watch the three stooges than laurel and hardy.

    Overall, it just felt like a very boring movie. And I like a lot of movies from that era... James Bond, Deliverance, Star Wars, Dirty Harry, The Sting, etc. I had no problem getting into those movies decades after they had come out. But the Godfather... Tried it twice. Just doesn't have what I'm looking for in a good movie. And I agree, Goodfellas and Casino were much more entertaining. Not sure why. Maybe there's something wrong with my brain .
    Well duh, Captain Obvious. It's why you're here.

    It's why we?'re all here.

    You're showing your age again.

    I know "talkies" ruined your movie experiences, too.

    Well, the good news about this retarded take is that it puts your retarded take on Sean Taylor in context. @whlinder You basically have shitty taste, which leads to shitty takes. I've never hated anybody I like as much as I hate and like you Roadie.

    Slow and boring. FFS. GF is not just a mobster movie. It's about the perspective of the immigrant in a new country and how that shapes their experience, their decision making and their whole outlook. It's about moving one culture into the middle of another one. It's about an immigrant family trying to make it to the "legitimate" seats of power however they can. It's about the hypocrisy involved in dismissing them as simple thugs. It's basically the whole back story of Cosa Nostra and arguably the story of our country you shit taking son of a bitch!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Good Fellas and Casino are awesome movies, but they're more about the blood and violence of the story, which appeals to young and simple men. The more refined intellectual will appreciate the GF. To put it in terms you can understand: GF and GF II are novels; Good Fellas and Casino are video games.
    I nominate "You shit taking son of a bitch" for permanent residence in the rotation.

    I said what I said. Nobody under 40 has chimed in that Godfather is great. They are both overrated movies. Believe me, I wanted to like them, and I don’t completely hate them. They are well made, but so fucking long and boring.I question whether you guys all really love the movie or if you feel you have to becuase it was drilled in your head that they are the greatest movies of all time.

    Break free fellas.

    What is a ‘great’ movie for those under 40?

    For mobster movies I think the Departed is pretty timeless. Has all the qualities of something you can watch over and over.
