I'm not sure why GFIII does not get the respect it deserves; it obviously is not as good as GFI and GFII (those are hard acts to follow) but on it's own is an excellent movie. Pacino is at his best - look at his scene where he's having his first diabetic seizure ...

MICHAEL
Thunder can't hurt! Harmless noise! Bullshit! Deceitful little f**k! Altobello! You f**k!

<Michael gets up and tries to walk, held by Vincent and Al Neri. He staggers and then doubles over.>

MICHAEL (screaming)
Fredo! Fredo!

THAT IS GOOD STUFF ... and the scene where Mary is killed on the opera steps. Pacino at his best.


GFI is about corruption in the law -
GFII is about corruption in politics -
GFIII (fittingly) is about corruption in the church.

Napalm, boy -- nothing else in the world smells like that -- I love the smell of napalm in the morning -- it smells like ... victory... (Lt. Col. Bill Kilgore, 9th Air Cavalry / 1st Cavalry Div - Sept 1969, North Vietnamese Village on Nung River)
