Classic, but I don't want to see it again

I just watched Godfather 1, but after watching it, I dare not watch 2 and 3. It's a classic, it's classic enough, but it's boring to me. The old Corleone who likes Brando's creation has an indescribable temperament. He just sat there, wearing a black dress, giving orders casually in a hoarse and steady voice, and even his posture was exquisite. But watching people die one by one, watching Mike's transformation step by step, I felt so depressed and sad. There is no fanatical desire for power in Michael's nature, he is pure love for his father. He used to say I didn't want to be like him, but I love him. But in the end, he still became the person he never dreamed of, and he seemed to be more cold-blooded and ruthless than his father. Alas, this can't be said to be degenerate, it's fate, and it's also the path he chose.
It is said that in 2, Mike personally killed his brother, and in 3, Mike's daughter also died, and the once handsome Mike became an old man who could cry, ah, still don't watch it.

    The stupid label "Men must-see" that can be seen everywhere on the Internet has made it impossible for me to view this film with a normal mind. There are countless real men who have never watched a few complete movies in their entire lives, let alone "The Godfather", but this does not affect the fact that they are real men.

    After eight years, it is necessary to correct my own opinions. The simplifications are still there, and the scriptwriting and performance are numerous. Looking back, you can find that the "big screen" experience brought to the audience by "The Godfather" is enough to refute it. Of an objector. The short look and the number of blows in the scene of one kill and two were indeed beyond precise.

The Godfather quotes

  • Michael: [speaking to Carlo] Only don't tell me you're innocent. Because it insults my intelligence and makes me very angry.

  • Capt. McCluskey: I thought I got all you Guinea hoods locked up! What the hell are you doing here?

    Michael: What happened to the men who were guarding my father, Captain?

    Capt. McCluskey: I pulled them guys off of here, eh, now get away from this hospital!

    Michael: I'm not leaving until you put some guards around my father's room.

    Capt. McCluskey: Phil, take him in!

    Cop with Capt. McCluskey outside hospital: The kid's clean Captain, he's a war hero! He's never been mixed up with the rackets...

    Capt. McCluskey: Goddamn it Phil, I said take him in!

    Michael: What's the Turk paying you to set up my father, Captain?

    Capt. McCluskey: [to Patrolmen] Take a hold of him. Stand him up. Stand him up straight.

    [punches Michael and breaks his jaw]
