I didn't think it was that bad.

Not that good either, but I thought it was at least worth watching.

it's too bad. Such a good book...such a bad movie.

Godfather was one of the only miracles. Although, Donnie Brasco was good too.

I recently got every Puzo book I could find and I was wondering if the sicilian was good and I was wondering if the fourth K was good.

That actor? Don't need to watch it, it sucks anyway.

Yes it was already made into a pretty bad movie. Should it be remade with a decent cast and quality director? I would say most definitely.

It was readable, at least, and not hard to follow and with a decent plot.

Certainly not one of Puzo's best, though, or even close.

I'm a fairly avid reader - always in the middle of reading something - and just about every book in my life which I really enjoyed, I've read more than once.

Not The Fourth K, though.

Also, to fully appreciate the book, it would help to have at least some idea about the Kennedy family and their past role in American politics.
