Amazon.co.uk Review
Throughout his long, wandering, often distinguished career Francis Ford Coppola has made many films that are good and fine, many more that are flawed but undeniably interesting, and a handful of duds that are worth viewing if only because his personality is so flagrantly absent. Yet he is and always shall be known as the man who directed the Godfather films, a series that has dominated and defined their creator in a way perhaps no other director can understand. Coppola has never been able to leave them alone, whether returning after 15 years to make a trilogy of the diptych, or re-editing the first two films into chronological order for a separate video release as The Godfather Saga. The films are America's very own Shakespearean cycle: they tell a tale of a vicious mobster and his extended personal and professional families (once the stuff of righteous moral comeuppance), and they dared to present themselves with an epic sweep and an unapologetically tragic tone. Murder, it turned out, was a serious business. The first film remains a towering achievement, brilliantly cast and conceived. The entry of Michael Corleone into the family business, the transition of power from his father, the ruthless dispatch of his enemies--all this is told with an assurance that is breathtaking to behold. And it turned out to be merely prologue; two years later The Godfather, Part II balanced Michael's ever-greater acquisition of power and influence during the fall of Cuba with the story of his father's own youthful rise from immigrant slums. The stakes were higher, the story's construction more elaborate, and the isolated despair at the end wholly earned. (Has there ever been a cinematic performance greater than Al Pacino's Michael, so smart and ambitious, marching through the years into what he knows is his own doom with eyes open and hungry?) The Godfather, Part III was mostly written off as an attempted cash-in, but it is a wholly worthy conclusion, less slow than autumnally patient and almost merciless in the way it brings Michael's past sins crashing down around him even as he tries to redeem himself. --Bruce Reid, Amazon.com

Product was dispatch quickly. No problem. Amazon, amazing
 Been Waiting for This for a Long Time! August 23, 2010
M. Delicio (San Francisco, CA)
The Godfather is, in my opinion, the greatest American film ever made. I have owned every version of the film/trilogy on every available medium. When I learned the series was being released on BluRay I was ecstatic. The quality is unsurpassed in both video and sound. I have already watched parts 1 and 2 several times and thoroughly enjoy them each and every time. These films were made for BluRay and vice versa. I highly recommend the Godfather Trilogy on BluRay!
Timeless classic August 10, 2010
Y. W. Smart (London, UK)
I first saw these films when I was about 12/13 years old and absolutey loved them! I haven't tried out the bonus materials disc yet, but the Godfather I-III discs are great quality; widescreen with surround-sound. It is commonplace that I love Godfather I and II the best, but I think the third movie just doesn't seem exciting enough. Godfather I includes Michael Corleone's (played by a yound Al Pacino) innocent descent into the family organisation. Godfather II also has great scenes such as the old Don's (played by Marlon Brando) previous life in Italy and how he got to his current position; it shows some beautiful scenes of innocence played by Robert de Niro as the young Don. I would always recommend this masterpiece to anyone!!!Definitely worth the value.

The Godfather. Urgh. I can barely control myself just thinking about it....
Excellent films. It's far superior than a Milky Way. That's how good. The boxset also includes all sort of features (if you're into that sort of thing) but it's imperative that you commence the buying of this product. All 3 Godfather titles in one boxset. Comes in pristine condition and is very good for Sunday's!
If you have always wanted to own such a momentous boxset, here it is.
I now command you to buy this. By far the best thing I've ever bought lol.
Regards!
