re: Godfather Part III

I've never seen the third Godfather, but I have seen the first two. I've always heard it's a pretty bad movie, but people tend to exaggerate and I'm thinking about watching it tonight.

So, I admittedly have never seen the Godfather I or II.

A few years back I borrowed my brother's box set of the trilogy. Put in the first disc and started watching. Right off the bat I thought the footage looked a lot more recent than what I thought it should have, but I kind of shook it off. About an hour later I realized I'd yet to see any of the famous sences. Bored out of my mind it finally dawned on me that Al Pacino was a heck of a lot older looking than he should have been.

That whole time I had been watching the Godfather 3. My idiot brother had put the disc in the wrong spot, and I started watching the last one first without even realizing it. I felt so lost and was utterly bored with the movie. The whole time I kept hoping it would pick up since it was such a beloved work.

To this day, I have still not gone back and watched the first two.
