Francis Ford Coppola is one of the most acclaimed American directors of all time - here's a ranking of every movie he made from worst to best.
I’d put Godfather Part II over Apocalypse Now but neat list I guess.
Out of the ones I’ve seen:
01) The Godfather Part II
02) Apocalypse Now
03) The Godfather
04) Bram Stoker’s Dracula
05) The Godfather Part III
You rank Dracula over The Conversation? I enjoy Dracula, especially the fever dream-ish atmosphere and visuals. It’s certainly a better adaptation than the ‘79 one with Frank Langella. The only flaw is the atrocious casting of Keanu Reeves.

The list isn't set in stone and movies can jump forward or back at any given time, except for "Apocalypse Now" and maybe "The Godfather."
You think Godfather III is better than Godfather II?
shareOnly because the saga of Michael (Pacino) in Part II is relatively dull, particularly the first half, which mostly involves overlong scenes of talky drama. Michael's story simply lacks the energy and highlight-every-15-minutes of the prior film.
Moreover, Pacino is thoroughly one-note solemn as Michael, lacking the character's interesting story arc in the first installment and the dimension of the third. I'm not blaming Pacino, as he simply played the role as written and does it well. I'm just saying that he's not a very captivating character, particularly compared to Brando or De Niro as Vito. He's just too one-dimensional and therefore uninteresting.
Examples of the human "dimension" of Part III include Michael's confessing his sins to a priest in a Vatican City garden and, later, with Kay in Sicily.
There are several other highlights amidst the drama in Part III, like the break-in scene at Vincent's abode, the Atlantic City massacre, the street festival hit, and the entire closing opera sequence that juxtaposes the performances of the play with various violent attacks, as well as the aftermath.
