What movie did you just watch and what did you think?
- Thread starter ColdBlooded
- Start date
just watched 1 & 2 no real plans on watching 3 either
definitely more of a fan of 1 than 2, pacino was much more engaging as the returning soldier trying to hold his family together than the ruthless king he became
vito & sonny characterized 2 aspects of what michael would later become a lot better imo, he was just cold & empty during the 2nd film, i was completely indifferent to him for the majority of it, pacino played it so flat

yea but i think that was the point of number two, to contrast his father with himself. it shows you how his father had humble beginnings and built his empire on mutual respect and adoration from those around him. and how michaels empire is one built mostly on fear and violence. i think he did an excellent job acting, nailed the role perfectly. you definitely feel better after watching the first movie than the second, but theyre both great in their own regards. its a tie for me. i still havent watched part 3 yet (i have in the past just not since i got the restoration set), about to watch it in the morning
i watched The Losers. i though it was badass and would watch it again. it was well cast & highly entertaining. Zoe Saldana lookin fine as fuck as per usual. they set it up for a sequel so i hope that happens soon. 7.5/10
Just finished Case de mi Padre starring Will Ferrel and this beautiful woman Genesis Rodriguez:
Not sure if it's a body double, but you get to see her ass & cleavage, so there's that. This movie is a tasteful parody of Spanish telenovelas & it's pretty damn entertaining. It is 90% Spanish so subtitles are needed. If you watch online, find a copy with good subtitles because mine was absolute shit. 6.2/10; would watch again with better subtitles.

i watched number 3 yesterday; its so good in its own way. dont watch it and compare it to the first and second movie, just watch it as itself and enjoy it for what it is is what i suggest. there a lot of awesome stuff, like when joey and vincent meet in front of michael, that was an awesome scene. or the helicopter hit, the whole immobiliare business dealings, good stuff. mosca the assassin was one of the coolest characters in the whole movie series. dont overanalyze it just check it out, its a fitting end to the trilogy
