Review of The Godfather Part II (1974) by Superbat — 28 May 2020
Definitely one of the greatest sequels of all-time, The Godfather Part II is a sequel that nearly lived up to its predecessor. It expands on the Godfather saga by depicting Michael Corleone's venture into the "family business", and his gradual descent into madness, while also showing flashbacks of his father's rise to power.
The constant switching between time periods makes this film less engaging to watch. However, this film has pretty much all of the strengths of the first Godfather film: performances, score, cinematography, etc.
If you appreciated The Godfather, it's more than likely that you'll appreciate its sequel.
