Review of The Godfather Part III (1990) by Mrpajamas — 02 Nov 2020
We've been waiting a long damn time for Godfather III. While the first part is from 1972 and the second from 1974, the third part is from 1990. I'm glad Al Pacino stayed. There's just no other person than Al Pacino to play Michael.
The previous episodes are among the MASTERPIECE and the best movies ever made. Is that the case with the third installment? Not really for me. As great as the film is, it's not as masterful as the previous installments.
While the story is again great and the soundtrack is masterful, as it always is with The Godfather, it just wasn't as interesting because not much happened except for the ending. The previous episodes appealed to me more.
This was already a bit of an epilogue that just didn't have a chance for me to catch on to the previous episodes. The finale is worth it though, and the last 20 minutes of the film are an absolute delight to watch.
A nice ending to the trilogy. It wasn't easy to conclude such a masterful trilogy, but it was quite successful. On the one hand, I'm not going to lie, I would have preferred it to end with a double feature.
At least for me.
