The Vito Corleone backstory is as good as the original. The follow on with Michael as the Don is a bit weak.

IMHO it is, one of the few sequels to surpass the original film which was a masterpiece in its own right but Part 2 is exceptional.

I would go along with that it is easily a top 10 film of all time.

The final scenes are devastatingly good when Frankie pays for being a grass.

I liked Rocko as one of the support cast and the ever engaging John Cazale who died very young and in all 5 films he appeared in they were nominated for an Oscar which must be a record.

Was dying during the making of The Deer Hunter (never thought he looked well in it, but only found out about his condition at that time recently). Meryl Streep's other half at the time as well, what a time on set that must have been.

I love John Cazale. Best of all for me in Dog Day Afternoon. Every ounce of tension happening underneath the action and the moody dialogue is all in his face and the lines of perspiration forming on it.
