First of all these movies span a period of almost 20 years between the first and the last. Too bad they were not all produced as a series (in close order).
Probably the most powerful images are those of the leading characters (which is almost an oxymoron)who play roles that are easily characterized as stunning. But especially Pachino, who is truly frightening but pathetic at the same time.
The movies themselves are gripping. I thought part III was the dogs Bollocks, to which the entire three movies (less the first - more the 2nd) - was building up to.
The finale was classic and I'm sure any serious opera lovers will agree, very much a classic "Italian Opera." It is no coincidence that that finale takes place, in fact, at the opera - of course an Italian opera.
Glad I managed to see them all within a short time span.
Again - Bravo - (especially to Pachino even though he sometimes over acts a lil )
