Zaki Hasan San Francisco Chronicle Not enough has been changed to turn around anyone who already dislikes it, but in cutting out 13 minutes of runtime, the director has excised many of the small moments that made it uniquely memorable in the first place. Mar 28, 2021 Full Review John Anderson America Magazine Much is tailored to the needs of drama in "Godfather, Coda." But one cannot manufacture urgency in a film that lacks the kind of cosmic conflict of its two predecessors. Dec 18, 2020 Full Review David Ehrlich indieWire It's often gripping, sometimes masterful, and almost never betrays its history as the work of a wayward giant scrambling back toward respectability after a long decade lost in the wilderness. Dec 18, 2020 Full Review Erick Estrada Cinegarage The descent of Michael to different hells. Each one more tragic. Each one more profound. [Full review in Spanish] Nov 1, 2022 Full Review Nick Hasted The Arts Desk For all its flashy flaws, perhaps we should be grateful Coppola scrabbled so close to a legitimate last act. Rated: 4/5 Mar 14, 2022 Full Review Bill Chambers Film Freak Central I'm reminded of Robert Evans objecting to a shortened version of The Godfather that removed all its texture. "Where's the sauce, Francis?" he asked. Rated: 1.5/4 Mar 3, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Mike B Great film but not many changes from the original. Its faster paced due to this but, then lose some storyline due to the cutting out Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/24/24 Full Review Audience Member A very satisfying conclusion the story Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/25/24 Full Review OzricAurora Fixes some problems, but creates a few new ones at the same time. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/10/24 Full Review Niccolo N I loved it : it's definitley an improvement on The Godfather Part III in story and pacing. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/22/24 Full Review Simon R Contains spoilers: Sofia Coppola's acting! Apart from a slight tweak to the music and - very oddly - no longer showing the death of Michael - it's the same darn movie as Part III. What a swizz! Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/05/24 Full Review Haydn K A lot of the 90s fluff and baggage is removed to make this clean cut version fit neatly in with its previous films. Its the perfect ending to the trilogy and its heartbreak on the steps still leaves you in shock no matter how many times you see it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews
