The Godfather Part II


Even though I had considered The Godfather (1972) overrated back when I watched it, I always thought its sequel, The Godfather Part II (1974), deserved all the praise it received. I'll put my answer as briefly as possible: While the sequel is as cinematically sophisticated as the original, its subtlety wears it down a bit and makes it feel a bit unbalanced on an emotional level.

Score: 9 out of 10

PS: I know this review is awfully short and disappointing, but I struggled with writing the review for over 2 days so I figured I should do it as briefly as possible.
