Pros: Even though it has the disadvantage of following on the heels of I and II, overall I liked the plot twists,and of course the memorable murder scenes (ie. the helicopter massacre,stabbing Luchessi with his glasses,etc).

Cons: The absence of Tom Hagen. I know it was a money decision by Duvall,but I think every fan wanted to see how his final story arc with Mike would have played out. George Hamilton was a ridiculous substitute. Even though he wasn't blood,Hagan was the last of the "brothers" to Mike and I felt a little cheated by not knowing what his fate would have been.
