12 Amazing Films The Critics Hated
9. The Godfather , Part II
It’s hard to imagine that there was ever a time when anybody considered this anything less than one of the finest movies ever created, but critics at the time saw it as little more than another money-grubbing sequel-““It’s a Frankenstein’s monster stitched together from leftover parts. It talks. It moves in fits and starts but it has no mind of its own. Occasionally it repeats a point made in The Godfather (organized crime is just another kind of American business, say) but its insights are fairly lame at this point.”
