CibbuanoThe Godfather (of cruddy movies)
May 23rd 2008 05:19
The godfather is said to be the all time best gangster film of all time but I gotta tell ya that its not. Its all lies told by the Man in charge because they don’t want to admit that there are better films out there. Like scarface. Or street kings. Here is a list of things wrong with the godfather
1. it’s old. I mean, like really old. It was made in the late 50s so for a start theres no decent action in it. Sure some dudes get killed but you hardly see any blood and the whole things so old its virtually black and white.
3. its so long! I mean like 4 hours long. They dance for a bit, some dude finds a horse head in his bed, then they eat some pasta and then they go to church. And that’s pretty much it!
Now compare this to scarface
1. scarface has a chainsaw in it.
No need for any other points. That automatically means scarface is better.
Now compare it to street kings
1. street kings is the greatest film ever made.
And the godfather isn’t, so once again, this automatically means street kings is better.
I tried to watch godfather 2 but I got too bored because they didn’t speak English in it AT ALL. Godfather 3 on the other hand was surprisingly good, mainly due to the appearance of a young tom hanks, who completely steals the movie, but still that dont save the whole trilogy.
if you want to see a decent crime movie check out street kings or rush hour.

I am so with you on that one!!
Not only a chainsaw but WAY more cocaine.
And OMG I think you are the only person who agrees with me that Godfather 3 was by far the best.
Nice article!!

Just because something is old doesn't mean it's poor/bad. I'm old (older than The Godfather movie, in fact), but I don't actually feel as though I'm so old I'm practically in black and white (The Godfather is quite definitely in colour).
The Academy didn't take back the Oscar; Brando, an activist, turned it down, being one of very few people ever to do so.
Yes, the movie is long, but nowhere near as long as Titanic, and certainly it's not four hours long..
Brando purposely spoke in that mumbling style; it was part Brando, part his character.
No chainsaw, huh? Strange criterion for a 'good' movie.

The Godfather is one of the best movies ever made and I think it will stand the test of time.
Marlon is one of my heros. Streetcar is another one of his masterpieces.
How could you?
