David Rooney The Hollywood Reporter After a compelling first hour, the director can’t seem to get to the dramatic and emotional crux of the epic story, which runs a bloated three hours. Sep 11, 2023 Full Review Jessica Kiang Variety The story of the stolen children was a secret way too long buried to be thus buried once more within a movie that is, simply, way too long. Sep 7, 2023 Full Review Stephanie Bunbury Deadline Hollywood Daily The film [would] feel unwieldy if it were not for Rogowski’s binding performance; he is at the center of every scene, but the ripple of feeling -- and pretended feeling -- across his face never grows dull. Nov 16, 2023 Full Review Josh Parham Next Best Picture The film is weighed down by a messy and unfocused execution but is also significantly saved by Rogowski’s performance. Without his tender, heartbreaking, and engaging performance, the film’s structure would collapse. Rated: 6/10 Sep 9, 2023 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com Despite some slick identify theft film noir tropes, Diritti squanders this energy in the monotonous pacing before crash landing into condensed melodrama for the film’s inevitable dismal finale. Rated: 2/5 Sep 8, 2023 Full Review Caspar Salmon The Daily Beast Lubo is built around another magnetic central performance by Franz Rogowski in the title role. He portrays the titular character Lubo as a gracious, impish kind of live-wire—a man whose love of performing is coded into his DNA. Sep 8, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
