Movie Reviews of The Godfather DVD Collection (The Godfather/ The Godfather - Part II/ The Godfather - Part III)
Movie Review: Good price for a great collection.
Summary: 4 Stars
I'll make this short. For being older movies, these are classics. I had never had any interest and finally broke down and ordered this collection. The movies are amazing. Even if you are not into this type of genre, there is a high chance you will enjoy these anyway. The story is deep and entertaining, whoever you are.
My only complaint is the very very dark display for these movies. Tried it on several players and T.V.s. But at least thats a small complaint.
Summary of The Godfather DVD Collection (The Godfather/ The Godfather - Part II/ The Godfather - Part III)
Throughout his long, wandering, often distinguished career Francis Ford Coppola has made many films that are good and fine, many more that are flawed but undeniably interesting, and a handful of duds that are worth viewing if only because his personality is so flagrantly absent. Yet he is and always shall be known as the man who directed the Godfather films, a series that has dominated and defined their creator in a way perhaps no other director can understand. Coppola has never been able to leave them alone, whether returning after 15 years to make a trilogy of the diptych, or re-editing the first two films into chronological order for a separate video release as The Godfather Saga. The films are our very own Shakespearean cycle: they tell a tale of a vicious mobster and his extended personal and professional families (once the stuff of righteous moral comeuppance), and they dared to present themselves with an epic sweep and an unapologetically tragic tone. Murder, it turned out, was a serious business. The first film remains a towering achievement, brilliantly cast and conceived. The entry of Michael Corleone into the family business, the transition of power from his father, the ruthless dispatch of his enemies--all this is told with an assurance that is breathtaking to behold. And it turned out to be merely prologue; two years later The Godfather, Part II balanced Michael's ever-greater acquisition of power and influence during the fall of Cuba with the story of his father's own youthful rise from immigrant slums. The stakes were higher, the story's construction more elaborate, and the isolated despair at the end wholly earned. (Has there ever been a cinematic performance greater than Al Pacino's Michael, so smart and ambitious, marching through the years into what he knows is his own doom with eyes open and hungry?) The Godfather, Part III was mostly written off as an attempted cash-in, but it is a wholly worthy conclusion, less slow than autumnally patient and almost merciless in the way it brings Michael's past sins crashing down around him even as he tries to redeem himself. --Bruce ReidSome of the greatest masterpieces in cinema history "The Godfather Collection" is the saga of the generations of successive power within the Corleone crime family told in three films of staggering magnitude and vision masterfully exploring themes of power tradition revenge and love. "The Godfather" (1972 175 min.) - Adapted from Mario Puzo's best-selling novel Francis Ford Coppola's epic masterpiece features Marlon Brando in his Oscar-winning role as the patriarch of the Corleones. Director Coppola paints a chilling portrait of the Sicilian clan's rise and near fall from power in America masterfully balancing the story between the Corleone's family life and the ugly crime business in which they are engaged. Winner of three Academy Awards including Best Picture. "The Godfather Part II" (1974 200 min.) - This brilliant sequel continues the saga of two generation of successive power within the Corleone family. Coppola tells two stories: the roots and rise of a young Don Vito (Robert De Niro) and the ascension of Michael (Al Pacino) as the new Don. Winner of six Academy Awards including Best Picture. "The Godfather Part III" (1990 170 min.) - Now in his 60's Michael Corleone is dominated by two passions: freeing his family from crime and finding a suitable successor. That successor could be fiery Vincent (Andy Garcia) but he may also be the spark that turns Michael's hope of business legitimacy into an inferno of mob violence. This special collection also includes an additional disc containing over 3 hours of bonus material.System Requirements:Starring: Marlon Brando Al Pacino James Caan Robert Duvall Diane Keaton Talia Shire Robert DeNiro Lee Strasberg Andy Garcia and Sofia Coppola.
