Okay finish to a great set of films

Rating: 7/10 (1 November 2007)

I enjoyed the first two the most. I think the writing and direction of this one is good. But the acting is awful. Andy Garcia seems to have watched the first two films to many times and he seems to try and consume the screen but does not succeed. His dialogue especially with Sophie Coppola is dry and not godfather worthy. The major difference between this and the other films is that there is no character development. You are kind of given the characters from the previous films and that is how they stay throughout the film. Also I think not having Robert Duvall kills the family. Michael is the only character we really know and it makes it difficult to relate to all the new people. If you are a fan of the first two you need to finish the series with this but don't expect much until the end.
