It certainly wasn’t in the same league with I or II but taken in comparison to today’s offerings it is a decent film.

There were a few interesting scenes and Andy Garcia does an admirable job as Vincent, but overall the story was not as compelling at the original. Seemed like Puzo had run out of material.

Yes,you're correct to say that it's far better than 99.8% of the stuff that's released today. I,personally,have only seen it once...long ago...so I don't remember much about it.But I do remember being quite disappointed.

Maybe I should give it another chance when the new 4K discs are released,I intend to borrow them from my local library (which is truly outstanding) and I'll probably see III and well as I & II.

The story was supposed to be about a power struggle between Michael and Tom Hagen, but they couldn’t get Robert Duvall to sign.

So, they had to rewrite the story.
