Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Francesca D Great dystopia set in a futuristic, polluted italian city. A modern tale with a real vision. Alessandro Borghi is a guarantee, but the real surprise are the two young main character. Very very good Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Progetto estremamente ambizioso, soprattutto nelle prime fasi in cui si apre un mondo post apocalittico per nulla scontato e tutto da esplorare. Nel seguito ci si concentra forse un pelo troppo sui personaggi piuttosto che sull'ambiente, che finisce col restare abbastanza sconosciuto per tutta la durata. Alessandro Borghi si diverte potendo dare sfogo a tutta la sua abilità senza porsi freni di alcun tipo. La trama resta interessante e ben strutturata, seppure date le premesse era lecito aspettarsi qualcosa di più originale. Progetto interessante non sfruttato a pieno. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review brent m In a world of the future characterized by environmental degradation, rampant brutal crime, out-of-control gang activity, and an ever-widening gap between haves and have-nots, life is a struggle for those who've been left to fend for themselves. Such is the case for a pair of Italian teenage street urchins living by their wits to survive. They have few choices, and most of them aren't good. And, as their story unfolds, matters tend to go from bad to worse. These are the circumstances graphically depicted in director Alessandro Celli's allegorical debut narrative feature, whose story realistically could be as much about the present as it is about what's to come. Because of that, this cautionary tale that echoes elements of "Blade Runner" (1982) and the "Mad Max" franchise isn't especially revelatory but serves more as yet another reminder of where we're headed as a civilization, one that will probably be seen more as an action-adventure entertainment vehicle than a statement meant to be taken as a warning. The picture's tendency to meander, its lack of narrative specifics in some regards and its incomplete resolution of several story threads don't help, either, despite the screenplay's noteworthy introduction of a number of intriguing concepts and characters. The bottom line here is that this release could have used some script tweaking and tighter editing to make for a better offering -- and it's unfortunate that these measures weren't implemented. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Manny P As one of the critics pointed out, this isn't far from the current truth. I worked there and you had to have eyes in the back of your head. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/11/22 Full Review Read all reviews
