Summary: The Godfather
Review: This is the best film I have ever seen. It is quite simply a masterpiece , the perfect film.
What makes it great is not just the superb performances turned in by Pacino, Caan, Redford And of course Marlon Brando but the atmosphere of the whole film. From Ellis Island to long beach you will believe that everything you see can or has happened.
The most notable performance is from Brando who radiates respect and an almost indescribable fear of the man who tottaly commands the cosa nostra. To miss this film would be an infamita and if you cant get hold the film the book is just as good

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Greatest Movies Made
Review: The godfathers are the greatest movies ever made. If you have the time, sit and watch all three in a role over a weekend. You will not want them to end. Godfather I is excellent. Godfather II is better than the first one. Godfather III is good, but not as good as the others. However, Godfather III was set up perfect for a Part IV. It's a shame one was never made.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: As a Whole, Almost Perfect
Review: The novel, "The Godfather" was the first adult book I ever read. I have since read it twice more. It is rare that one can say that a movie is better than the book, but in this case it is true. Parts I and II are two of the finest movies ever made. Part III will always be up for debate. Personally, I did not care for it.

I found the box set, handsome and wonderfully presented. The added features were entertaining as well as informative.

If you are a movie fan, you have seen the three movies already. If you are not a movie fan you have to see this entire set.

Get it for someone during the holiday season this year.

Enjoy.

Summary: No wonder this shows in most top-25 movie lists
Review: This is a must have for any collector. The price is a little steep, but I think it is worth every penny. I had seen GF I and GF II years ago. This is one movie you enjoy even more the second time you watch it. I also recommend the fifth add-ons disk. I just finished a marathon session and watched all the DVDs again. I personally prefer keep cases instead of the cardboard cases included. I wish: (1) Robert DeNiro had a longer role and they had shown some transition from Robert DeNiro to Marlon Brando in part II. (2) Robert Duval should have been part of GF III. (3) Marlon Brando should have accepted the oscar.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GodFather
Review: The best DVD set on the market. All 3 movies are excellent. You will not be disappointed, and neither will anyone watching with you.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Rating the DVD collection, not the Movies
Review: Look, the movies are great. No one can argue with that. The problem is with the quality of the DVDs in this set. It is terrible. Everything is so dark and shadowy you can hardly tell who is on screen. It is actually painful to watch. I haven't seen the other DVD releases, but I also own the Godfather EPIC (edited chronologically) on VHS and the picture quality is far superior to this DVD collection. Same goes for the versions I've seen on cable. Some might say that this is the nature of transferring a movie filmed in the early 70's to DVD. Listen, it seems that Coppola et al spent quite a bit of time doing interviews and voice overs for this DVD collection - they should have spent more time making sure it looked good. It is an insult to everyone who paid 80 bucks for the thing.

One more thing. It seems there is a problem with the quality of plastic used in the DVD cases. It is much too brittle. AFter you remove the DVD and replace it one time the part that holds the DVD in place cracks into little pieces, making the DVD fall out. I can get a CD for 3 bucks and not have this problem. Either someone wasn't thinking or was thinking too much.

I feel like sending the thing to Coppola's winery with a dead fish inside. The message - Francis Coppola's career swims with the fishes.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Timeless Classic
Review: I LOVE this movie. I could watch it over and over again in one sitting! It's highly addictive. You cannot finish watching one and nort go on to two. The way each movie ends leaves you wondering about the next. I highly recommend this collection to anyone who loves old Italian Godfather type movies. The book is really good, also.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Godfather is the best movie ever!
Review: It is a must have to any serious movie collector. Al Pacino is great in it and the story is a definite classic. It is number 3 on AFI's The Greatest Movies of All Time list following only Citizen Kane and Casablanca.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: sooo goooodddd
Review: you can't get any better than the godfather. the films (at least the first two) are just faultless. coppola's in his prime, the script is great, the acting is perfect. they're just fantastic movies. everyone should see them at least five times.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a new vision
Review: The history of the corleone family changed our way of viewing the mobsters thanks to the incredibly talent of mario puzo of writing the story and the one of francis ford coppola taking it to the movies
