The Godfather

Spanning the years 1945 to 1955, a chronicle of the fictional Italian-American Corleone crime family. When organized crime family patriarch, Vito Corleone barely survives an attempt on his life, his youngest son, Michael steps in to take care of the would-be killers, launching a campaign of bloody revenge.

The Payback

A murderous, two-timing thug tries to score the big dope deal...and we're just talking about the filmmaker here! But "dope" IS the operative word when it comes to The Payback And The Vegas Bloodbath.
