The first two Godfather movies have just been re-added to streaming

Talk about an offer you can't refuse!

The Godfather and The Godfather Part II - two of the best movies ever - are newly available to stream on Prime Video.

The original was first released in 1972 and became the highest-grossing movie of that year and won several Oscars.

It focuses on Don Vito Corleone (Marlon Brando), the ageing head of a mafia family in mid-20th century America, and his son Michael (Al Pacino), who is reluctant to become involved in the family business.

Co-written and directed by Francis Ford Coppola and based on Mario Puzo's novel of the same name, The Godfather took what could have been a standard gangster tale and elevated it to new heights - with its incredible performances, its rich characters and dialogue, its attention to detail and its deeper exploration of family ties and the American dream.

Two years later, Coppola returned for the sequel The Godfather Part II and accomplished what seemed like the impossible - making a follow-up that was as good and maybe even better than The Godfather.

Part II won even more Oscars, including notably in the Best Supporting Actor category for Robert De Niro, who played a younger incarnation of Don Vito.

The pair of classics are streaming on Prime Video in Ireland and the UK right now.

They are also available to watch on Paramount+, along with a recut version of 1990's The Godfather Part III.

This new version is titled The Godfather Coda: The Death of Michael Corleone and saw Coppola make slight tweaks to the trilogy capper.

It earned some acclaim from critics after premiering in 2020, scoring an 86% score on Rotten Tomatoes based on 58 reviews.
