So why is this movie considered a classic? I thought it was decent and interesting but wasn't blown away. I had the exact same reaction when I saw the Godfather I and II for the first time. I know this sounds crazy, but I preferred Good Fellas and even Donnie Brasco to the Godfather movies. I guess it's just hard for me to watch movies from the 70s and understand what makes them so great since they are so much different that movies from the last 20 years.
