Good but nothing compared to the other two

Rating: 7/10 (5 June 2003)

Godfather III had a bunch to live up too and it didnt really deliver that much. Its a good movie but pretty flawed, when the first two were pretty flawless. Godfather III has some good things about it that if the bad hadnt been so noticable I could outweigh the bad with the good.

The acting is good with ONE exception. Al Pacino is solid as Don Corleone, but this is his weakest performance in the trilogy. Diane Keaton is passable as Kay. Andy Garcia is excellent. Talia Shire is good. But Soffia Coppola was absolutely awful. Coppola must have been desparate to put her in.

Godfather III's strengths are in some of its scenes, which it has two excellent scenes. The Atlantic City Massacre and the Opera Scene, both flawlessly shot. The movie is pretty well shot, though the other two were superiorly directed. Its well written, though the dialogue isnt as memorable in this one. The Sets and Cinematography were fantastic.

7 out of 10.
