I didn't care for the love story between the cousins and was missing that old ruthless cold-hearted Don Corleone that Micheal was in the first two Godfather movies. I think Formal is right the audience low key never wanted Micheal to change. I know I didn't lol. But as I got older and as I re-watched The Godfather Part 3, I grew to have a newfound respect and understanding for this movie. Micheal had a different motivation in The Godfather Part 3. Micheal didn't care for power anymore, instead his new motivation was redemption. But in the mafia world, redemption is very hard to achieve.

Oh yes, the superb acting of Sophia Coppola... TBH that is just one of many issues this movie had, but in general it is not THAT bad, and I like the real-life connections, of course with an artistic license (new Pope really did rule for little over a month, there was a scandal in the Vatican Bank (Banco Ambrosiano), and Immobiliare was involved in that scandal, as it was indeed a large construction / real estate company.)

Fun fact: There was originally gonna be a Godfather 4. It was gonna be in the style of GF2 where it would tell 2 stories: one being about Vincent running the family and another about Vito running the family in the 1930s where we'd see Sonny come up in the family, the legend of Luca Brasi, really seeing the family step into the peak they had in the first Godfather. Ultimately, the central story was gonna take place in the 80s (and maybe up to the 90s) with Vincent getting into the drug biz, grieving over Mary, making mistakes and getting killed in a shootout with the feds towards the end resulting in the family collapsing for good.

[@tobe1207]

The books flesh out the characters a bit more. Sonny has a kind heart like vito, and is great at violent street level organization (hits,ambushes, he has a nack for that type of action) but is a hothead. Fredo has charm and likability like vito, but is weak and not cunning. Mike has the mythotical,strategy and cold cunning like vito, but lacks the humanity and heart. Vito seemed to have the strengths of his sons but not their weakness..because he comes from such dire circumstances that he couldn't afford weaknesses

If you want a laugh you should check the movie ‘The Freshman’ a comedy about a young film school student who gets mixed up with the local Mafia. Mathew Broderick plays the film student and Marlon Brando stars as the Mafia Don. He just dusted off his Vito Corleone character and played him comically. The class is studying Godfather2 and the actor who played young Clemenza in Godfather 2 is one of the mafia characters as well.

[@Thewingkongexchange]

'The Godfather Part III' may not be at the same level as the first two, but it's still a very good film (albeit hard to follow in places). Once it stops beating you over the head with the references and callbacks, it stands up on its own. This new version feels unnecessary tbh as it just moves a couple of scenes around and trims Sofia Coppola's scenes a tad.

[@gazoontight]

This is not the version shown in the theaters. Do you remember Lucy Mancini from the first movie? Don Tomasso from the first two movies? They're in this one, too. Yes, you noticed the blasphemy in the very first few minutes of the film. This version fades out with Michael sitting in a chair. The version that was shown in the theater ends with Michael dropping dead out of the chair all alone just after he puts on his glasses. I always thought about the contrast between Vito and Michael. Vito started with nothing and ended up with a large family and many trusted associates. Michael started with everything and died with nothing, all alone. The original last scene, with him lying dead in the dust, was more profound. In a very real way Michael died when Mary got killed. Afterward he is the proverbial dead man walking.

The original ending has Michael dying as on old man and falling off that chair in the theatrical Godfather Part 3 release.

Another great reaction, guys! The "Death" referred to in the title is metaphorical. It's the spiritual death of Michael Corleone; the death of his soul. In the theatrical cut, they showed his physical death, falling over out of his chair. But that isn't the story Coppola wanted to tell. So this is the director's cut that he originally wanted released, but Paramount wouldn't approve at the time. Underrated, unfairly maligned film. Not on par at all with Parts I and II, but a really good, solid movie on its own, Sophia's acting excepted. But I don't think Winona Ryder at the time would have been much better.

[@goaway9977]

Yo I never realised Tuco from The Good The Bad and The Ugly was in this. Have these guys reacted to that yet? If not someone gotta recommend it to them. The runtime is gonna piss them off lol. But yeah the Coda version improved this a lot. It's still a let down though. Pacino's performance as a more mellowed out older Michael is interesting, but lacks continuity with the Michael from the previous two films. They feel almost like different characters. And yeah Sofia Coppola's performance is not good. This wouldn't be so much of a problem if so much of the films emotional impact wasn't hinged around her. The film would have been so much more impactful if the audience could actually relate to Vincent's attraction to her, instead of just being grossed out and shaking their head at the fact they were cousins. Sofia Coppola got a ton of criticism for this role when the film released, with almost every movie critic ripping her to shreds and many blaming her performance for the lackluster quality of the film. Must have been pretty tough for an 18 year old to go through. It is interesting hearing Francis Coppola talk about how reality mirrored the film in this way. He always saw the production of the Godfather films as a family affair, and by casting his daughter he was putting even more emphasis on his own family just like Michael was trying to in the film. But when Sofia took so much criticism for the quality of the film, Francis felt that she had taken a bullet meant for him, just like what happened to Mary in the film. I imagine it was an emotionally difficult time for the whole family.

The relationship between the cousins is based upon Coppolas Grandparents being cousins. Coppolas Grandfather married his Grandmother because her face was deformed and he knew that nobody would marry her. Coppolas Grandfather didn't want her to grow old alone, so he offered to marry here out of compassion, not lust, knowing the risk that their children might have birth defects. Their children were not only healthy, they were born hyper talented as we see today.

Mary dies by the sins of the Corleones, but Sofia continues to thrive in real life by the virtues of the Coppolas. Part 3 was about how the Coppolas became the family that Vito always wanted the Corleones to be. You can't have that message if Winona Ryder is trying to play Sofia Coppola. Sofia Coppola was perfect for this. There was nothing wrong with Sofia Coppolas acting because she wasn't acting. She was being Sofia Coppola, as instructed by her father.The relationship between the cousins is based upon Coppolas Grandparents being cousins. Coppolas Grandfather married his Grandmother because her face was deformed and he knew that nobody would marry her. Coppolas Grandfather didn't want her to grow old alone, so he offered to marry here out of compassion, not lust, knowing the risk that their children might have birth defects. Their children were not only healthy, they were born hyper talented as we see today. Ask Google, "Is Mary Corleone based upon Sofia Coppola?" and you will get a big "YES".

I can't stand this version of GODFATHER 3 ... especially the Title where it has a huge SPOILER in it not to mention the final scene is very different from the Theatrical version. I ALWAYS suggest against Reactors watching this version. #IETVandMovieTalk #WeJustTalkingTVandMOVIES #TellemTANKseddit #TANKTheSweetScienceExaminer

I have never seen this whole movie. It’s boring to me. Violence, but overkill.

Part 3 is God... Awful...

A lot of people shit on GF3 but I think it's a great end to the trilogy.
