Worthy sequel to the first films. Slows down towards the end

Rating: 8/10 (12 January 2007)

Hardly anyone credits the third film. To be fair, it was never intended to be the 'end' of the saga, but more of tying up Michael Corleone's ends.
Many scenes, notably the action sequences keep the flow of the movie going. The only problem the film has, is its tendency to rely heavily on Michael's story of wanting redemption etc.
Perhaps if more depth was given to Al Neri (a sub-character throughout the saga) or if the scenes with Kay and Michael were shortened to maintain the suspense.
Godfather Part 3 is a good film within its own right. The only problem was it had a hard act to follow from the earlier films.
