Uhm Tony- I just have a little rebuttal to some of your statements about GF III.
In terms of it being unrealistic, it was actually based losely on a true story (the Vatican)and really, this argument has no merit after the deaths of everyone in Part I, and Michael not being arrested. American wasn't THAT corrupt!
Diane Keaton's acting was probably her finest since Annie Hall, IMO. I thought she did better than good, she did fantastic.

With that out of the way, i must say that I love this movie sooo much. It is definitely my favorite out of the trilogy and of all time. I know i'm in the vast minority but the movie is just so touching and introspective, and the ending, the best of any movie, is breathtaking. I watched it with my father for the first time the other day, and he wept he was so moved. My support wavered for a bit after reading some of the thing said on the board (for example i found myself examining Sofia's performance) but than i just though f*ck it, who cares. I like it, and thats all that matters
