Default The Godfather

Has anybody seen this movie? I've got it to watch for tomorrow. My night in to watch a movie! I've heard good things about it but my friend told me to get Goodfellas first, which I did, and absolutely loved it. I'm just hoping that in comparison with Goodfellas, The Godfather won't let me down!

Bleh. I passed up the chance to watch The Godfather last weekend. Instead I watched Donnie Brasco and then Scarface. Scarface left me bored for 3 hours and Donnie Brasco, although a bit better, wasn't anywhere even close to Goodfellas.

Scarface is quite good ;o

When you watching The Godfather, go down the shop and get some salty popcorn ;]

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I'm really amazed that you hadn't seen the Godfather yet, or Goodfellas. I'm not a big fan of Scarface myself, but that's not really a 'mob' movie anyway. Anyway, if you haven't seen it, check out Godfather II, I personally prefer it to the first one, as DeNiro has a role as the young Vito Corleone. The first one's a classic though.

You can't really compare it to Goodfellas, as it's a much more modern, action filled movie. Plus you've got Sorvino, DeNiro, Pesci, Liotta. I'm gonna go get the papers, get the papers.

The first 2 Godfather movies own. The third one wasn't as good. Goodfellas and Casino are awesome mob flicks as well. Donnie Brasco is good, but is a step or two below GF and Casino.

Scarface is overrated. If you want to see a good gangster movie with Pacino in it, go watch Heat. That movie is a masterpiece. Another good DeNiro flick is Ronin.

I couldn't have said it better myself; Heat is one of my all-time favorites. Ronin is also good, but I prefer 'The Score' w/ Ed Norton.

Lol I find that sentence very ammusing to say you watched Babel and rated it. How can you find Scareface boring and Babel entertaining? Babel has a good story, but I've found watching paint dry more entertaining.

I don't remember Scarface that well, but I remember I enjoyed the film and wouldn't stop imitating the guy (yeh, like everyone did).
