Soldini brings us vivid characters, and gets all the details right, from the humdrum rhythms of marriage to the unglamorous milieu of working-class Milan. Go to Full Review

Come Undone collapses the faade of emotional connection by highlighting the small erosive moments of deception rather than grandiose melodramatic tirades. Go to Full Review

If the movie tells an old story, its unvarnished realism lends it poignancy and depth. Go to Full Review
Doris Toumarkine Film Journal International 12/03/2010
Mild but absorbing drama about infidelity, passion and deception among some everyday middle-class types in Milan is short on insight but benefits from involving characters, an enveloping urban milieu and inevitable consequences. Go to Full Review

Alain E @AlainE May 27 An alternative title could be Anatomy of an infidelity. Two married lower middle class Italians start an affair. The source of the mutual attraction is unclear: the man is definitely hotter than the obese husband of the woman, but she is not more attractive than the wife of the man. They try to break up, then they reunite. In the last scene the woman decides to end the relationship, but given what we witnessed over the last two hours , two weeks later she could be texting him to arrange a next meeting. Acting is good and the sex scenes necessary to illustrate the story. Nice color cinematography. The ultimate point is that any person in a couple could stray? See more 10/29/2020 Good movie, good acting, believable script, and very realistic. It covered some uncomfortable topics, and the timeline was difficult to follow, but it was really an interesting movie. If you're expecting an action flick, this isn't it, so don't watch it and give it average reviews, because it isn't an average movie, it's good. Believe the critics on this movie, and not the public. See more 05/17/2017 The pacing accurately mirrored married life, but the tedium went on too long. The movie gave us no reason to like either of the main characters, and we're left wishing their spouses had chosen better. Perhaps it was a lack of on-screen chemistry, but I found nothing exciting about the sex; indeed, because the characters were so unlikable, it just kind of grossed me out. See more 09/04/2014 good indie rel drama See more 07/05/2014 Sexy & sad with a predictable ending. I also couldn't bring myself to care about the main characters. Cheaters deserve what they get.
