Reviewing the Godfather's trilogy one after another, all three films give people an unspeakable sense of vicissitudes.

Al Pacino's acting skills make people feel that he was born for McCorleon. The Mike in the three movies makes people feel that they are completely three different people. The innocent Sunshine Boy in the first one becomes a new godfather who is forced to stand up and save the family, and then to the second one is cold-blooded and cruel. In the end, the third part became a calm and heroic old man, just like his father at the time. This also fits the life experience in the movie that makes people undergo vicissitudes of life.

Of the three movies, I think the second one is the best. This Maccorleone was tied to the American dream of disillusionment. When the dream was shattered, he was already separated from his relatives and his wives. The most cruel part of this film was that he killed his own hands and feet. When the gun was shot, The loneliness blew from the lake like a cold wind, and there was no one around him, and he was destined to be like this when he walked on this road. The second final alternation of shots allowed the film to be sublimated by art. The cold wind was raging outside in late autumn. He recalled the last dinner with his family before joining the army. On the train, he was taken to wave goodbye to others, as if the film was telling him that he was saying goodbye to his relatives when he grew up and became the godfather, just like his current life: he inherited his father and said goodbye to his relatives.

The Three Godfathers series faded the coat of gang struggle, the most direct hit to the soul is the great change in life, the most beautiful is Sicily in midsummer
