Death-defylingly appalling
By a customer from London , 01 Jul 2005[Highly rated reviewer]
This excuse for a film is a total insult to Mario Puzo's novel and suffers from dreadful acting, dazzlingly appalling dialogue and hilariously bad dubbing. It also bears very little resemblance to the novel's storyline. If you were a fan of the godfather you will cry with pain when you watch this, infact if you get to the end I commend you. Never rent this film.- Was this review helpful to you?

By a customer from Newtownabbey , 10 Dec 2007I had heard bad things about this adaptation of Mario Puzo's excellent novel (which I had read just prior to renting this), but even still I wasn't quite prepared for how bad it is. I didn't even make it to the half-way point, so turned off was I by the bad acting, appalling dialogue and poor direction. A complete botch-up from the second it starts.- Was this review helpful to you?

Disappointing
By lloyd glater from Watford, England , 19 Jun 2006What could have been a great film turned out to be a big let down. A film from the brilliant novel by Mario Puzo (The godfather) with the great christopher lambert is ok but is nowhere as good as it could be. It strays from the book far too much and simply does not carry it off.- Was this review helpful to you?

A Sicilian Masterpiece
By Zorro69 from Lincolnshire , 28 May 2005You must watch this film - the prequel to The Godfather trilogy, directed by Michael Cimino (winner of an oscar for The Deerhunter) and full of a cast of quality, experienced actors including John Tuturro, Justin Clark, Christopher Lambert and others.
In particular watch it for the virtuoso performance by Mr J Clark ("the boy")in one of his first big screen roles, he plays the part with aplomb, in fact this young upstart has probably the best performance of all the ensemble.- Was this review helpful to you?
