This was a first time watch for me. I grew up rotating the same few mafia movies my father watched like, The Godfather, Goodfellas, Scarface, and A Bronx Tale. But I never saw this in his collection. But I always heard this was one of the best movies of all time and wanted to give it a watch myself even if my father never kept it in his rotation. After seeing it I understand why it was not in rotation, because this is not a rewatch all the time type of films. That doesn't mean that it is a bad film at all. It's just a long and well thought out film. Just like it's predecessor, the casting is perfect and the Italian everyday lifestyle representation is amazing. The only thing I didn't like was the switching between the past and present. It sometimes made it hard to remember where the story was at when you switched back.
