Godfather: Michael's Opus, The

Just amazing. Thoroughly enjoyed Michael's Opus - more than Vito's even. The final installment seemed a lot more impactful than it did as Godfather III and made a lot more sense integrated into the larger story.
The quality of the editing was phenomenal and the project was seamless.
I cannot recommend these edits enough.

My preferred way of watching Godfather was always in four parts: GF2 [Vito], GF1, GF2 [Michael], GF3. Wraith has taken these four parts to make two epic edits that present as much Godfather footage as possible in one narrative. The result is spectacular and truly the way these films deserve to be seen. My only gripe would be the quality, which is very rough and nowhere near as good as my blu-ray discs or 1080p rips I've seen in the past. Other than that, impeccable work!

Read the book for the first time this month, I was struck that this was the story of two Godfathers, not one. I so love this project by Wraith. He is taken a story of three movies and made it the story of two Godfathers. We get to see two (anti)hero's journeys with more focus and clarity than the original movies. I love the original movies and this project only helps me appreciate these movies in a different way: one man's rise and fall...followed by a sequel of one man's fall and redemption.

The Godfather in sequence-who could ask for more. See the Don Corleone Opus and then Michaels and your life is complete. Perfectly edited in sequence with no issues but pure unadulterated pleasure. Another great job by the editor and my go to version. So grab a cannoli and watch both edits in fabulous HD.

This one is loooooooong overdue.
You will find this Review in Michaels Opus as well, as i have watched both of them, for 3 times now.

There is no point in me telling you, what Wraith did, in detail. What i want to share in short is this:
WRAITH´s Versions did something to me, they Reopened those Movies, that i have watched countless times.
triggered by my father (italian heritage) i was watching The Godfather 1&2 many times freom a young age.
Everytime, while i grew up, more and more opened up - i understood more of the meanings and feelings of the characters, and in the movementes of the older version of Don Vito, i saw my (than aged) dad.

I am emotional about these movies, since they have played a big part in my youth and still do.
The "new" Versions are the best i have ever seen. I experienced some scenes like never before.
Dialouge hit me more, cuts and sound and chronology are flawless.

I strongly recomend these versions to everyone that just feels a shrad love for the OG Cuts -
Wraith teleports The Godfather on a pedestal that might stand forever !!!!

thx for sharing, i really appreciate it!
