What's with the hype for The Godfather? - eviltoast

I watched it recently for the first time, and I really don’t get why it’s so loved. IMDB rates it as the second-best movie of all time, but it seems far worse than that to me. I like most old movies and see their hype, but The Godfather didn’t do it for me. What am I missing?

    It’s still better than 99% of all movies made in the last 30 years; you just have shit taste.
