I reviewed this film for the newspaper and you can find that review here. I will say that I was surprised by the quality of the movie, but as it stands on its own it definitely would not be as popular if there were no books. I have not read the books, but I assume those are the reason so many people flocked to see this, all the non-readers, like me, just went to see what the fuss was about. While it's a quality film and there are things in it I greatly admire, I would advise you to make sure not to get your expectations too high. I certainly look forward to the sequel to see where the story goes, but I won't be expecting The Godfather Part II.
Grade: B
