Summary: One of the Greatest Trilogy's EVER!
Review: Get the DVD. Open the DVD. Watch the DVD. Done.

In all seriousness, this is perhaps the greatest trilogy ever produced. This story takes you deep into the depths of the Corleone family. The cast is an all-star affair with Pacino, Brando, Deniro, Duvall, etc. A must see for all lovers of fine cinema!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Don Coppola
Review: Gangster films before Godfather made organized crime exciting and glamorous but Godfather made it respectable. Ironically, by condemning society-at-large(politics and big business)by drawing analogies with organized crime, Coppola only elevated the mafia to legitimacy; the book, by the way, is even more nakedly--but also more honestly--enamoured with mafia power; while the movie tells the story of a young Michael who's seduced into evil, the audience falls under the same spell; everyone leaves the theater thinking that Vito Corleone was a great man, that the murder of Sonny was a major tragedy, and that though Michael loses his soul, he's one well-dressed badass. One can defend this movie by saying that the Corleones are a breed apart from a breed apart. That while most mafia guys entered crime simply out of greed, Vito was originally a good guy who became a criminal for altruistic reasons(Robin Hoodlum?). Well, whatever, but I've also completely fallen under the spell. It's completely bogus as a statement about crime and politics but it's hard to think of another movie as finely mounted as period piece, conducted as blood opera, calibrated as compelling drama. The script, the acting, the direction are all supreme.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazon makes an "Offer you can't refuse"
Review: The Godfather trilogy, I supposed that if you were to buy the Godfather you might as well buy the whole trilogy. I thought that the sequels were not necessary. The first one was incredible, a great plot, great actors, great decade to make it in. The second movie was great also, it had somethings that made it memorable, quotes, the plot was still the same which made pretty good. The third one had to come, only because it would've been really [incomplete]... without the third one. It was a wise move.

The first godfather was mostly about the leader of a mafia, and he was passing it down to his son. His son on the other hand was trying to keep out of the family business so that he could start a new life. But after the father dies the son has no choice but to assume the role as the Godfather. Al Pacino kicks ass!

The second godfather was about how Michael keeps the family striving, it also shows a little bit about his father, played by Robert DeNiro. The legendary brother kiss is the only reason this movie made anything. Its what put it on the map.

I dont know much about the third one, I have seen bits and pieces but it looks pretty stupid. I guess if your a godfather fan it would be useful to watch it.

Well thats pretty much it... Have fun!

Summary: The Best Movies Coppola has directed so far
Review: The Godfather I II and III(the weakest one of all but a great movie anyway) are the best mafia movies i've ever seen so far.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Brilliant Classics
Review: The Godfather I and II are two of my favorite movies. Everything about them is impeccable. Wonderful acting, directing, screenplay, cinematography, and a great score to boot. Unfortunately, the lackluster Godfather III is also included in this DVD set. Although not a horrible movie when compared to most of the dreck which comes out of Hollywood, Godfather III still fails on several levels and is certainly one of the grossest miscalculations in movie history. Were it not for the flawed 3rd installment, this package would get 5 stars.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very Good DVD Collection Must Own
Review: These are three of the best movies ever created. It includes Godfather, Godfather II, and Godfather III. These movies follow the life of the Corleone "FAMILY". The acting is wonderful, the setting is wonderful, and of course the story lines are all BREATH TAKING. The DVD extras are ok. I especially enjoyed watching the movies with the commentary which teaches you many interesting things such as where the famous horse's head came from. All in all, i think this is a wonderful collection to own.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: " ill give him an offer he cant refuse "
Review: This film is probably one of the greates gagnster movies of all time. Produced by the God of film making, Mr. Francis Ford Capolla and based on the outstanding story written by the genius author Mr. Mario Puzo. This masterpiece has been selected by the AFI (100 years , 100 movies) as the 3rd best film of all times. Its simply a GREAT film !

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Indipensible masterpiece
Review: I wouldn't know how to even begin writing a review of two films that have become cultural icons Godfather Parts I and II are certainly in that category. There is so much here in addition to unforgettable performances by Brando, Pacino, De Niro,Duvall, Cann and so many others. The plot is intricate. The use of flashback sequences has never been utilized to such effect. The sets and the time period are perfectly depicted. The screenplay is so memorable that it is often quoted and used as a reference in other films and everyday speech. This DVD collection is beautifully packaged and the transfer to DVD is flawless. The extras included are well done and interesting. Overall I'd have to say this is a great investment and one of my prized possesions. Any serious film lover deserves to have this in their collection.
