I have read most of the opinions of GFIII. While most were negative. I really wouldn't use the word "hate" to describe the reviews on the thread. I think it was mostly a matter of being disappointed. The best review that I think summed it up was that after the first two, they were tough acts to follow. If it wasn't for GFIII being linked to the first two. On its own, it might have been a decent film to watch.


I don't disagree with anything you said. Very few people are able to watch GF3 without comparing it to I and II, which is completely understandable. Over the years I've become able to and appreciate GF3 a little bit more. On its own it's not an awful movie. Sofia Coppola is never going to win an award for her performance, and George Hamilton will never be Robert Duvall. But at least with re-edit, the storyline itself has improved.
