Finally took this in last night.

I probably saw it as a kid but didnt remember anything about it. I viewed it with fresh eyes after watching part 1 and 2 earlier this weekend.


It was not that bad a movie. I mean sure if you compare it to part 1 and 2 there was an obvious fall off but if you judge the movie on its own merrits its on the same level as King of New York which was a classic. The incest plotline was weird though.,.... im not sure why that had to be there



I think most people shyt on godfather 3 cause of its comparisons to part 1 and 2. But if you think about it, Godfather 1 was a single story told in 2 parts.


Part 3 came out 15 years later had had very little to do with the first two. I think if they gave part 3 a different name it wouldnt be judged as harshly.

Andy Garcia was that dude tho.

This.

As a kid I liked Vincenzo more than anyone, hence my OG SOHH username. It's only when I got older that I realized why my dad would never show up for GFIII when we did a marathon.

Part I & II are, to me, perfect movies - III isn't THAT bad, but it pales in comparison.

Andy kills it and the Sicily scenes are dope as fukk too. The idea of a guiltwrecked Mike who's own kids are a bit :scust: at what he did is great but it didn't translate to the screen well.

Pacino was just so bad in this from what I remember. He stopped being an actor and just did Scent of a Woman for everything
He fell off but this came out before scent of a woman. Still was good tho, u got this, Carlitos Way, Glenn Gary Glenn Ross,scent of a woman in a 4 yr time span.

People also forget how good he was in Donnie Brasco.
