I’m going to ignore Obama and comment that the dinner table scene at the end gives me chills just thinking about it.

Prepping for his next gig in life...Movie critic

In reality, it only shows the taste in movies being equal too the taste of life: gangsta flicks where people kill people. The fool sees himself as the Godfather and begs to have his ring kissed.

Well, it is a great movie. The '70s had some incredible movies - Chinatown, GF I & II, Taxi Driver among others.

Is that the scene where everybody exits the room. leaving Michael alone,where Pacino does his greatest, quietest piece of acting......head down, rubbing his eyes with the base of his palm. I used to see my Father do exactly that when I was growing up, and to see it on film, as “undramatic” as it was, really blew me away.

Wow! Shallowbama ain’t so shallow after all. Godfather 2 portrays a great tragedy, but it is one of most majestic films ever made. It far surpasses the original.
