like many others, i think part 3 is a very good film, when looked at by itself, but only is good/fair when looked at with 1&2.

you're right about coppola's daughter. the worst scene was at the theater and she wants to talk to garcia but he says no, and she tries to act all flustered...its BAD

Sophia Coppola is a terrible actor but a great director! Loved "Lost in Translation".
