Slightly inferior to part 1, but still a perfect continuation of the story. I enjoyed the beginnings of Vito Corleone played flawlessly by De Niro more than Michael's descent into ruthless mafia boss along with the impact on his two families, but both were still amazing examples of storytelling acted so well that you forget they are fictional characters.

Today this movie alone would probably come out in three parts, it takes its time but is engaging throughout.
