Michael needed to do what he thought was best. But this was just mean. But Michael had problems in his life. His wife left him and the stuff in the 1st movie.
people said it was sonnys fault for all that happened with sollozzo.still if it was. you cant blame him. solozzo wouldve had the corleones 3 to 4 million dollars in a year. with tattalgia peace. plus. sonny corleone is a straight up BAD ASS. i wish he could have got to carlo and killed that son of a bitch before he was killed. but instead sonny dies and no one knows about carlo beating up corleone daughter and he gets kisses on the cheek from don vito. that made me MAD
i didnt like fredo from the start ... micheal is right .. never take side against the family ... no ever when odds r against u , afterall , its your freaking FAM!
Because he worked together with Hyman Roth, a rival for the Corleone Family, he put his own 'importance' in front of the Family, and because of that, Michael told his personal bodyguard, Al Neri, to assassinate Fredo.
This vid interpretations are weak in many ways --however, I am very glad to see that people have strong feelings on this central act in the Godfather Saga. It is intense to ask if at this point ( as in contrast to any other point) Michael crosses over into pure evil -- and whether we can even do anything but laugh all the way through GF III? (One has to wonder whether Coppola had forgotten the character created years ago. He seemed to want to pass all the evil to Connie!!!???)

Michael didn't want to kill Fredo but he HAD to. In the mafia one SMALL weakness can get you killed. If Fredo lives, it sends a message that someone can attempt to kill you and be given a pass. Thus why Fredo had to die.
The real reason Michael had Fredo killed was because he wanted to be the one to run some mickey mouse nightclub and go pick people up at the airport. Instead Fredo got the job and Michael was jealous.
Don Michael was more ruthless than Don Vito. I don't understand how that makes Don Michael a dweeb.
The whole crux of the matter was Sonny showing his interest in Sollozo's deal. The Turk knew if he could knock off Don Corleone, Sonny would be weak enough to give in. Sonny should have kept his mouth shut.
Don Michael should have never killed Fredo. Don't you think he felt remorse for it? That's what part of Don Michael's regrets were in Three.
Michael should banish Fredo from the country and from family business. He should have given him the ultimatum to retire somewhere in Europe and break all his bonds with criminal life. Killing him was unecessary. However,Michael maybe wanted to give the other rival mobsters the message he was so ruthless he could kill his own brother.
fredo was a retard thats why they sent him to vegas. When vito got shot, Fredo drop his gun tryna defend him. The best scene was when connie begged him to forgive Fredo, and as he hugged Fredo he looked up slowly at his boy AL because like vito said "keep your friends close, but your enemies closer" thats why sonny would've been a horrible Godfather, he woulda killed everybody and ruined the Corleone family....But i was sad to see him die. RIP Sonny

Kinda pointless to turn your life into a gutless sack of shit and say it's for a family business and then turn around and kill part of your family.
