"Gothika" STANK. The end is a comnplete con and makes no sense at all. NO WAY it would work out like that for her.

Nr 3 sucks badly though...
Not at all.
It's a far cry indeed from the stunning first 2 (which i see as one film anyway) but that is mostly down to Sofia's awful turn, the lack of Robert Duvall and the less than thriling Vatican plot (though it does show up the Catholic Church and it's cronies for what hey are, which is nice).

But for fans of the "Godfather" story there is much here of interest.
Not least of which are the nods to the other films (GREAT to have Michael's old bodyguard appear again), the on going journey of Connie and the heart breaking finale for Michael.
The very last sequence is pure magic for fans of the series and is a really emotional end to it all.
Highly flawed, not great as film on it's own...but there is still much to enjoy here.
