Notes

Story Synopsis:
Nominated for seven Academy Awards®, The Godfather Part III closes the trilogy with nine minutes of additional footage and Al Pacino reprising his role as Michael Corleone, older, wiser and trying to redeem his family by moving them out of crime and into legitimate businesses. But the Corleone clan, with decades of mob violence bred into them seek a successor to their empire. Twenty-five years after Part II, the Corleone family-with all its seductive past of power, tradition, revenge and love-lives on.

DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD exhibits a picture that retains the look of the series, while offering a bit more range within the color scheme. There appears to be some loss of detail that could be attributed to noise reduction. While not always present, edge enhancement can also be distracting. Compared to the LaserDisc, the picture is more defined, with improved contrast. (Suzanne Hodges)

Soundtrack:
The DVD soundtrack, remastered in Dolby Digital 5.1 lacks the subtle low-end extension and LFE activity that is noticeable with the previous LaserDisc version. The DVD soundtrack, however, sounds a little more “open” in terms of spectral resolution in the midrange. Fidelity is noticeably dated, but like the first two films, the general sense of spaciousness and occasional surround envelopment is quite palpable. The Carmine Coppola music score nicely fills the listening space, with a sweeping, expansive presence, and effectively wraps around the listener. (Perry Sun)
