Book Review: The Godfather

- I watched the movie a while ago, before I was really into doing movie reviews the way that I do them. Maybe I’ll do a review on the movie soon. That would be long overdue.
- The book is very different. Slower than the movie.
- The door scene at the end of the movie was just for the movie. In the book Michael says that don’t ask about my business line in bed.
- It had been long enough since I saw the movie that I wasn’t just playing it in my head as the book went along. I had my won movie going on, which was much more graphic.
- I’m not sure what that says about me.
- Wild that Michael could fall in love and marry the girl all in a month. She doesn’t survive, much like real life with rushed relationships.
- I still don’t buy that Vito could take 5 shots and survive.
- Same with all the disturbing beatings people take.
- If you can dig past the murder, unethical behaviour, and violence, there is love for family somewhere. If you’re just a friend, watch out.
- It was well written. Some parts were too well written. He’s just doing his job.
- Mario did his job.
- If I had kids, I wouldn’t recommend it to them.
- Still a good book.
