Is The Godfather Part III really THAT Bad?

I've have the pleasure of recently viewing this movie again for the first time in years, and I don't think it's as bad as people say. I want to know what other people think.

it's not. other than sopha coppolla's miserable performance, it's a fantastic movie. well written, and, on the whole, well acted. she doesn't drag it down too far.

Really, the thing is that its not such a bad movie... its just that it fails to clear the mark set by the first two movies. If you're going to make a sequel, it has to at the very least as good as the films that came before it. Thats where it falls short, and so was torn apart.

I agree it's quite a good film! It's a pity that robert duval refused to do it though! it would have been better with him in!

I think the main reason it's criticised is that although in it's own right it's a good film, it's not nearly as good as Godfathers I and II

The problem is that it dimishes the first two by being part of the same trilogy. That's why people get angry. In that respect it is like return of the jedi.

I voted "no." It's worse.
