- Synopsis:
Celebrating the 30th Anniversary of 'The Godfather: Part III', director/screenwriter Francis Ford Coppola brings a definitive new edit and restoration of the final film in his epic Godfather trilogy - Mario Puzo's 'The Godfather Coda: The Death of Michael Corleone'. Michael Corleone (Al Pacino), now in his 60's, seeks to free his family from crime and find a suitable successor to his empire. 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. The film's meticulously restored picture and sound, under the supervision of American Zoetrope and Paramount Pictures, includes a new beginning and ending, as well as changes to scenes, shots, and music cues. The resulting project reflects author Mario Puzo and Coppola's original intentions of 'The Godfather: Part III', and delivers, in the words of Coppola, a more appropriate conclusion to 'The Godfather' and 'The Godfather: Part II'. - Actors:

Pointless ReCut - The Godfather Coda: The Death of Michael Corleone review by GI
Director Francis Ford Coppola has tweaked the structure and edit of The Godfather: Part III to produce this slightly long version with a different start and a different end. But don't be fooled that this adds anything particularly new, in fact for the most part its the same film, and, for me, the ending here is strangely weird considering the new title - The Godfather Coda: The Death of Michael Corleone.. The original film was much derided on release and has never really garnered the accolades of the previous two films, masterpieces both. I have a suspicion that Coppola has been wounded ever since and this is his attempt to try and convince everyone that The Godfather: Part III is as good. He's wrong. This new cut changes nothing in the plot and if you agree with Al Pacino Michael Corleone's narrative efforts to become respectable don't fit with the conscience free Michael of the previous films. There is much to admire in this film and some of the set pieces are well constructed but the climax is too similar to that of The Godfather (1972) and obviously so. So overall this new edit is somewhat disappointing and bears no similarity to the excitement of Coppola's tinkering with Apocalypse Now (1979). If you want my advice it's stick to the original release version, its slightly more satisfying.
