Best Ever Movie - The Final
The final is being fought out between the Matrix and The Godfather. The reason for the delay to this round opening is due to the sudden death of my grandmother.

From those... the answer is: Godfather... I've never seen that movie, and will never see it, but nothing can get a lower score than Matrix...

From these, Godfather hands now. A good movie about mafia, family relations, and "real life".
Matrix was really good for its special effects, but I consider the plot to be below average, to say the least.

Given the choice, "The Godfather".
But this proves out my contention.
There's something deeply unsettling about the people here.

None of the above.
But having said that, 'the Godfather' is infinitely superior to 'the Matrix' in the ways that count.
Al Pacino's portrayal of Michael Corleone or Keanu Reeve's portrayal of slightly animated balsa wood....
oh yeah, a hard choice.

Was Frozzy ever a Florida resident?
That might explain his problem with vote count.

I'll go with the flow as well...
Neither... Too bad you didn't include a banana option. It would probably have won in a landslide.

Godfather is a great movie..not the best ever, but a great movie. The Matrix is a fine popcorn flick with pretensions of philosophy, nothing more.

The Godfather was better then the Matrix but it wasn't the best movie ever.
