Yes. I also liked the 3 in 1 they put together, except the last half or so of part 3. It was a good story, but Al Pacino as Michael, was a huge disappointment. To say he overdid it, would be an understatement. He seemed to forget his character, all together. Kind of a cross between Groucho Marx and an old George Raft. Very disappointing. If Robert de Niro could play a young Vito, to perfection, whom he looked nothing like, they could have had someone other than Pacino play an old Michael. Michael Nouri, Armand Assante, even Ben Gazzarra, but NOT the now Crazy Al.
Ben Gazzara. His greatest character was Jackie Treehorn.
Good points, yes. Plus not having Robert Duval in “3” was a big loss.
