The film's protagonist is Michael Corleone who is the anti-heroic because he changes from a person who has moral principles and a good role in society to a much more evil version of his father. In the beginning of the movie, Michael shows us how he won't dare to involve himself in the Mafia by telling his wife about his father’s Vito Corleone business and says he will never be like his family. However, as his involvement with the family business grows, he becomes more violent for example when he volunteers out of no where to to murder an enemy and a rival police officer who hit him in the first film. In the final scene of that film he kills his brother in law and coming into the second film he ends up getting his brother Fredo killed as well.
