There's no point in this review. You have heard it all before. "The Godfather: Part II" is a masterpiece with some of the best characters and acting ever. If you haven't seen it yet, do yourself a favor and watch it.

"The Godfather: Part II" shows how Michael Corleone expands his interests and how he protects his family. It also depicts Vito Corleone's journey to America and his rise to power. It's brilliant storytelling.

Robert De Niro is phenomenal as young Vito Corleone. The story of him becoming a mighty man is incredibly intriguing. There are no dull moments in that storyline. De Niro's performance is captivating even though a lot of time is spent reading the subtitles.

Michael Corleone is one of the most prominent fictional characters of all time. His transformation from a college student to being the head of one of the biggest crime families is brilliant. It's perplexing how Al Pacino has only won one Academy Award.
