Three Brush Godfather 2, I personally think it is the best part of the Godfather series. Every time I watch it, it feels different, especially in this state recently. Maybe a lot of people have seen it, everyone wants to be a handsome and resourceful Mike, but maybe he only lived as Fredo in his life. So the first point is to recognize your abilities as soon as possible, do what you should do, and do what you can do. Middle-aged Mike has experienced the ups and downs of life, and as a result, the second brother, the enemy, the betrayal, seems to have settled all the grievances, and finally reached the peak of his career - all the enemies were killed by him and escaped the federal court. The trial and the family business are all legal in the end. But the only thing he lost, and what he cared about the most, was family and love. Kai lost her child, the second brother betrayed him, and Tom, who seemed close, was heartbroken. Does he really care? Between himself and the outside world, he could not and could not live the way he wanted. Everyone is afraid of him. He is the leader of the largest mafia in the United States. One look can make the thugs work for him. People say he's successful, but I feel like he's a tragic figure. He was forced to instill so much effort into the Corleone family that he ignored the feelings of the people around him, and was forced to be pushed to his current position step by step by fate. Maybe when he misses the so-called plan for life that he said when he was sitting alone at the dining table on his father's birthday when he was young, he will also feel a lot of emotion? As a godfather's woman, Kai must have struggled for a long time when she killed the fetus in her womb with her own hands. How could she not love Mike? But Kay and Mike are not the same kind, and they are destined to have no relationship. Kay loves the light in his eyes when he joined the army to serve the country when he was young, his gentle voice, and the maturity when he has his own opinions and ideas, but he can't be a man after all. He, he couldn't give Kai the love she wanted. Maybe in Mike's heart, Kay's inexplicable departure is a regret that can't be made up for death? How much of the vision we have about life when we are young today is likely to be realized under the arrangement of fate? Family, love and friendship, how much can be consummated in the end? The history of the old godfather Vito's family history also makes people sigh with emotion, courage and leadership are innate. Some people are naturally grumpy, and some people are naturally weak and stupid, even though they all have the same parents. Vito's courage and sincerity in dealing with people and doing things when no one has taught him is his innate capital and the quality that a successful person must have. The bottom line is that his first money came from the local snake he personally killed. What amazed me was the meticulousness and calmness he showed when he killed the first time. Why did Klimansa never think about the so-called conditions that cannot be refused? Because he didn't dare, and he didn't have the courage and ability like Vito. This is what makes Vito different. If you want to get the first gold in his career, the means must be vicious, and the thinking must be farsighted. This is the point that the audience can learn from it. As for his later local fame and success, it was all due to his sincerity, friends and vision. Treating friends and family well is the way to success for the old godfather, and friends and family have also become the most reliable backing for his success. The differences in how the two generations of godfathers dealt with friends and family ultimately resulted in different ways of dying. Vito died next to the orange tree he planted with his little grandson, and there was an endless stream of guests who came to mourn after his death; when Mike died, there was no one around. But it can't be said that Mike's way of doing things is completely wrong, because fate is indeed unfair to Mike. I still admire Mike's old-fashionedness and decisiveness in handling family affairs the most, his firmness in avenging his father, his wisdom in his game with Ross, and his attitude towards friends and foes. Clear division.
Those who think too much will be tired, and those who are heavy will be bitter, which may be the best description of Mike. If I can, I still want to be Mike, because this kind of life is like the hottest cigarette, the most painful to smoke, but the strongest taste.
