Review of The Godfather Part III (1990) by Mellonhead — 31 Dec 2017
It's not so bad, not like everybody says. Sure, Sophia Coppola's acting sucks, but not throughout - a good portion of it I can stand. I would say if anything, it's Al Pacino's effort that's the most disappointing.
It has a pretty weak plot - very weak compared to the first two and the dialogue is weak. It's too long - doesn't deserve or earn the length, like the first two. There aren't so many layers like the first two.
If anything, repeat watches lessen my opinion of the film, because I just keep finding more and more flaws. The final couple scenes are nice, but maybe not worth a three-hour watch. Coming into the third, I expected very little, so it was a nice conclusion, but as a standalone, it's terrible.
Don't watch it if you didn't like the first two, but then again, if you loved the first two, there's a good chance you'll hate this one. So maybe only watch out of morbid curiosity, or if you're one of those die-hard fans who will give it a 10/10 no matter what.
