predecessor. If you enjoyed The Godfather, you'll undoubtedly enjoy this. Al Pacino gives possibly the scariest and most disturbing performance of his career (a career notable for successive scary and disturbing performances). It is an absolute outrage he didn't win the Oscar. His performance alone is worth it.
