I think i'm missing the point with this movie.
Yes, it's great to see Brando on the screen once more in 'Godfather' mode, but it all stinks of blatant cash in to me.
The story is your typical fish out of water scenario. Broderick plays new student who loses everything within ten minutes of being in New York, gets offered a job by Brando, and there is a massive racket going on involving endangered species dinner parties (yes, really).
it has it's moments, there are some funny lines from Kirby and Whaley, but the main stars really have little to do, apart from re-enact previous roles (Corleone and Bueller respectively).
it's not a bad film by any means, but they could have improved the script and the story a little, and made it a little more special.
still, lucky for the film makers it was made before Part 3.
not bad, just bland...
