Which Godfather film do you prefer? The third one is excluded; even though it's not a bad film, it's clearly not in the same league as the first two.

The first, because of Caan and Brando, but it isn't by much -------------  Time always wins. |

| Thought the first two were great but have to go with 2. Always liked a good backstory and you can't beat De Niro. Not two crazy about 3. |

Both are in the same level, but I have a weak spot for part II because the amazing performance of Bob De Niro as the young Godfather. Iván -------------

| Let me also remind you all that the book with the same name and author is absolute excellent too and very much a must-read book. It goes very much more into the material than the excellent movie. Both the movie and book is icons in my view. I am shamefully not an owner of the DVDs, but I will correct my mistakes by ordering it now. |

The first one because I've seen 19 times, over the second's 18. Both are masterpieces. My heart goes to the first though. -------------

Well don't be too surprised if you wake up one morning with a horse's severed head in your bed or get shot up at a toll booth. ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I think Part II is the finest film ever made, period, followed very closely by the first one. I actually do like Part III, mainly because of Pacino's towering performance as a man haunted by his past. A flawed masterpiece is probably the best way to describe it. ------------- Enhance your life.

Part III gets a lot of flak unjustifiably. 1st off it follows on the heels of a couple of well regarded ones, but it does come with a high body count. Anyway it was the only one I've seen in a theater and I enjoyed it. That part where this guy kills another guy with his glasses was way cool. ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...
