The idea of a Godfather part IV doesn't apeal to me because I feel that each of the films seamed to step down a notch the godfather was Sheer BRILLIANCE, part two was excellent, but I cannot say I was very happy with the Godfahter III. Athought still a good film, to me the plot was watered down and it was clearly evident that it was more Coppola's writing than Puzo's. It also annoyed me in the way which he made Michael seem as thought he was never really a strong person throughout the "Mafia" and it portrayed him more as a mouthy businessman man rather than one of the most powerful men in the world. I also found that the acting was not as good either, not from Shire or Pacino but more from Sofia Coppola who was, although one of the most talented directors of her times, a very wooden actor as was Diane Keaton.

This aside, the godfather IV appeal to me in a way because I would love to see more about the corleone family.
