GREAT! All I can say about it

the best mafia movie ever! with the famous horse head scene. emotional, filled with graphic violence and some suggestive material and one scene with partial nudity from the front.cdont let kids watch!

This is a very good classic movie. It's very graphic. Not for kids. It has very graphic violence, bad language, smoking, and a brief nude and sex scene. I would like to see this movie edited for tv. I rated this a Austin Review Collector Series.

THE GODFATHER is one of the greatest films of all time, not doubt. But the content is not for kids. It contains a sex scene, strong language, very strong violence and some drug reference. Kids might wanna watch it, but they have to understand the film though.

my rating -pg 13 for violence,nudity,and language ok people, if this movie is rated r why is beowulf pg 13 the violence was ok the nudity was brief but the language was all over the movie

One of the great classics. The film is violent, but it's not gratuitously so, and it has a message - absolute power corrupts, absolutely. For mature teens and up.

Ah, The Godfather. Probably one of my favorite movies all time. Of course I'm not a parent. A parent would probably find the violence alone to be too much for their child, and I admit, it is pretty brutal. Not just the actual gore, but the sheer violence and abruptness of it is what merits the "R" rating. While I did list language as a concern, obcene words are sporatic throughout the movie, and any teen should be able to deal with. There is also a single, brief topless scene in which sex is implied, but never shown. All in all, a classic film, but not for kids. Teens should be able to handle it, though.

This is one of my favorite movies, it's not just another mob film. It's THE Mob film. This is movie presents the most realistic depiction of life in the Mafia that you will ever see! It doesn't glamorize their violent and horrible lifestyle. It just weaves a fantastic story, where Family, and Respect are everything. As for violence, well... I mean what am I supposed to say? It's a GANGSTER film! There is quite a bit of very graphic and realistic violence, there are several shootouts, some of the main characters are killed with lots of drama and emphasis on the blood/gore. As for sexual content, there is one brief scene where intercourse is implied, but not much is shown. Not too much language, a few uses of f**k, sh*t, b***ch etc... This is a classic, but is only appropriate for mature audiences. It should be OK for 14+.

Awesome mafia movie, a little violent for younger veiwers, but the best of it's kind. Can give bad role model for younger children though.The question is, would you want the kind of people in this movie hanging out with your kids?
