Hilarious for Non Wisconsin residents
Added 1/7/2010
I have found that people from Wisconsin do not understand the comedy in this movie completely. If you're from out of state, you will enjoy this movie especially if you have been to Wisconsin for visits. It is a perfect example of Wisconsin life...the accents, the things people say and do. Hilarious! My husband and I who live in Green Bay now but are both from the east coast, laughed non stop...its like they say, its funny because its true.

Casting not believable
Added 2/20/2009
Though this little indie has its moments, the flaws are too deep to overlook. The ex-high school teacher, for example, looks about 10 years younger than the former 'students' who supposedly turn up in Green Bay and rediscover her. The godfather character's mullet looks too obviously glued on. And the Mafia bad guy sent to rough up the godfather looks too youthful to be a vicious hatchetman. The script is just ok, and the comedian sequences on-stage have some veritude. Watch if there's nothing else.

Very funny film from Pete Schwaba

I'll keep it simple: this film is funny. If you're in the mood for some solid blue collar comedy, you will thoroughly enjoy this film. GODFATHER packed houses all over the Midwest during its theatrical run and was standing-room-only when we screened it at The Midwest Independent Film Festival. The feature went on to win Best Comedy at our 2005 Best of the Midwest Awards. Well-crafted comedies that keep you laughing from start to finish are hard to come by and GODFATHER is one of them. Enjoy!

Cheesehead chatter

I was born and lived on the West Bank of Green Bay for 26 years.
Yes, the people and accents are funny, but where is Green Bay?
I like film, it pokes great fun at us, but it does not show you the true beauty of the area.

The Godfather of Green Bay
This a must see for any fan of Green Bay who can laugh at themselves. It is even beter for any football fan longing to laugh at Green Bay fans.
