Director Francis Ford Coppola disapproves of a video game adaptation of his classic The Godfather.
He was left unimpressed after playing a preview version of the Electronic Arts game which features vocal contributions from the the late Marlon Brando, James Caan and Robert Duvall.
Cubed3.com quote the director as saying: "I knew nothing about it. They never asked me if I thought it was a good idea. They use the characters everyone knows, and then for the next hour they shoot and kill each other. I had absolutely nothing to do with the game, and I disapprove."
