You can go through the entire game shooting people, and that is not what The Godfather is all about, at least in Coppola's eyes.
Remind me when this classified as an "action" movie. We are speaking of the film in which the studio almost brought in a second director, because the film did not have enough action in it, are we not?

There was occasional action, a minimal amount for a crime-drama, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I mean, they loaded Scarface with action to make it hold the attention of its viewers (whom must've all been diganosed with adult ADD), and as an end result, it sucked.

"Somebody told me when the bomb hits, everybody in a two mile radius will be instantly sublimated, but if you lay face down on the ground for some time, avoiding the residual ripples of heat, you might survive, permanently fucked up and twisted like you're always underwater refracted. But if you do go gas, there's nothing you can do if the air that was once you is mingled and mashed with the kicked up molecules of the enemy's former body. Big-kid-tested, motherf--ker approved."
