Question: Is it really worth buying the whole DVD triology. I mean, cause I see everyone just talking about the first 2 movies which I have just recently seen and loved them. But I heard the 3rd one is not that good. So what should I do? Buy the whole trilogy on DVD. Or just Buy the first 2, and rent the 3rd movie??
Thanks

There is absolutely no reason for such hostilities! You should be looking to help a person instead of humiliating them! I think your brains gone sour from all that comedy that you've been playing with that young girl! Never let anyone outside the family know what you are thinking, and never take sides against the family again!!! Don Cardi

Whoa Santino Jr. control the anger. Remember Mikey says that your anger clouds your judgement. But as to whether buying the DVD trilogy is worth it,yes indeed. Hopefully you are not the type of people to throw the baby out with the bathwater. Even though III pales in comparison to I,and II it is beautifully photographed and the most important character, Michael is in attendance being his glorious self. Plus there is always that Cuban eyecandy Andy Garcia!

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.

Pantangelli, It is definitely worth buying the DVD Trilogy. A must for all GF fans. While it's true that we all agree GFIII doesn't compare to the first two, doesn't mean it isn't good. It wouldn't be complete without having the entire story. Plus, there are so many extras included. Well worth it IMHO. TIS
