Editorial Review:

Amazon.com essential video:
Throughout his long, wandering, often distinguished career Francis Ford Coppola has made many films that are good and fine, many more that are flawed but undeniably interesting, and a handful of duds that are worth viewing if only because his personality is so flagrantly absent. Yet he is and always shall be known as the man who directed the Godfather films, a series that has dominated and defined their creator in a way perhaps no other director can understand. Coppola has never been able to leave them alone, whether returning after 15 years to make a trilogy of the diptych, or re-editing the first two films into chronological order for a separate video release as The Godfather Saga. The films are our very own Shakespearean cycle: they tell a tale of a vicious mobster and his extended personal and professional families (once the stuff of righteous moral comeuppance), and they dared to present themselves with an epic sweep and an unapologetically tragic tone. Murder, it turned out, was a serious business. The first film remains a towering achievement, brilliantly cast and conceived. The entry of Michael Corleone into the family business, the transition of power from his father, the ruthless dispatch of his enemies--all this is told with an assurance that is breathtaking to behold. And it turned out to be merely prologue; two years later The Godfather, Part II balanced Michael's ever-greater acquisition of power and influence during the fall of Cuba with the story of his father's own youthful rise from immigrant slums. The stakes were higher, the story's construction more elaborate, and the isolated despair at the end wholly earned. (Has there ever been a cinematic performance greater than Al Pacino's Michael, so smart and ambitious, marching through the years into what he knows is his own doom with eyes open and hungry?) The Godfather, Part III was mostly written off as an attempted cash-in, but it is a wholly worthy conclusion, less slow than autumnally patient and almost merciless in the way it brings Michael's past sins crashing down around him even as he tries to redeem himself. --Bruce Reid

- Finally made in time for Christmas
I ordered this collection for a friend for Christmas. I placed the order 12/04/08, it finally showed up on the 23rd (2 days before Christmas). She loved the gift, but I was getting very worried that it would show up after Christmas. I feel 19 days to recieve your order is a little much. The DVD set was in great packaging. I guess all that matters is that it made it in time.

- capolavoro!
Brando, Pacino, De Niro.............il massimo per una trilogia strepitosa! pochi film si possono paragonare a questi come pochi sono gli attori talentuosi come i tre protagonisti!

- A must have for GODFATHER lovers..
A wonderful collection that I gave my husband for his birthday. That along with a book of godfather quotes and it made his day. He is a huge Godfather fan and this was just the perfect gift for him (or any GF lover!)

- What can you say? It's The Godfather.
One of the greatest films of all time. And unlike most films, it's sequel lives up to, or exceeds, the original. Like The Empire Strikes Back, The Dark Knight or The Wrath of Khan, The Godfather 2 takes the foundation layed in the first film and runs with it.

The Godfather gave birth to all the modern classics, such as Goodfellas, The Departed, Scarface and Casino. And while The Godfather 3 may not be anywhere near the ballpark of the first two, it still deserves it's rightful place in the trilogy. Bottom line: If you have a liking for mafia films, you cannot skip the boxset.
