Truth. The Godfather is a slice of cinematic genius.
The problem is it's so liked these days that the angsty lot take it upon themselves to hate it whether or not they've seen it.

The Godfather is the most overrated film I've ever seen in my life.
I love the second. I think the second is an amazing piece of cinema, but the first is crap. Especially the scene where Michael does the guys in in the restaurant, I can't think of anything more poorly made, and I don't care whether it was made in 1972 or 2009, it looks atrocious. It's only redeeming feature is Marlon Brando's performance.
I much prefer the Shawshank Redemption as a piece of cinematic brilliance.
