Yes, I looked into it. I agree with you're statements so there isn't much to add to that.

What is also pretty bad is the way one of the Russo Brothers who had turned states was intercepted by the Corleones in the middle of the city, while being under heavy protection. That was totally out of proportions and wouldn't been plausible to say the least.

The one scene that I did enjoy was the raid on Altobello's compound by the police. One of the Russo brothers was caught carrying a weapon. When he was interrogated he claimed he had a weapon with him because he was scared of bears. I would see a mobster using such an excuse. smile

That was really Puzo's kind of humor.

"It was between the brothers Kay -- I had nothing to do with it."
