Sequels, as a rule, should not be made. Most of the time, sequels are a lazy way to make a movie with a ready-made fan base. And most sequels are merely a sub-par rehash of the original plot.
Once in a while, however, Hollywood does it right. And they did it right with Godfather II. This isn't a retelling. It's the continuation, as well as the backstory, of the first movie. Fans of the first will undoubtably like the second (although I've heard that the third movie is a waste of time).

didn't i say that? i like that, too.
you said it gave both. i was emphasizing that i like the backstory component.
