As promised:

One hour of soap opera followed by one hour of kinetic brilliance and tension; followed by yet another hour of soap opera.

Bloated, lacking focus and Russian Roulette aside; slow and tedious to the point of inertia.

Anyone who has dissed the Godfather trilogy and heralds this instead needs their heads testing.

I don't doubt the sincerity of this film but it is ridiculously over rated.

I will say that Jon Cazale is magnificent in this movie though which does add brownie points.
