I can't decide if I should even attempt part 2. Maybe I'll give it a shot

You should. I don’t really care for 3, but you should probably watch it to close

I know this is the case. That's why it's hard to appreciate older movies

You critique the acting in the Godfather then laud the Departed

Nicholson in The Departed was awesome. Brando was barely in The Godfather

The Offer is fantastic. But the Godfather is iconic.

The Offer is great. The Godfather is great. Watching The Offer makes the movie
