6 Movies That Are Unironically Better Than ‘The Godfather’

Collider · 5 hours ago

An entertainment writer for Collider makes the case that, while Francis Ford Coppola's 1972 classic *The Godfather* is routinely cited as one of the greatest films ever made, a small number of other films are unironically superior to it. The article argues that few movies can match Coppola's craftsmanship, but singles out six that either rival or surpass it, offering a subjective but detailed ranking aimed at cinephiles who enjoy debating the canon of "greatest films".

The list opens with Bong Joon Ho's *Parasite* (2019), praised as the defining cinematic achievement of the 21st century for its blend of class commentary, thrills and comedy, and Steven Spielberg's *Schindler's List* (1993), described as the definitive cinematic treatment of the Holocaust. The full text of the remaining four entries was not provided, but the piece continues in the same format, ranking films the author considers exceptional enough to stand alongside or above *The Godfather*.

  • Collider writer ranks six films he says beat *The Godfather*.
  • *Parasite* (2019) is named the top 21st-century cinematic achievement.
  • *Schindler's List* (1993) also makes the list, at number five.
