Until the moment when she, disobeying Santo, her father, she secretly photographs him and publishes a photo on her Instagram. The small post is enough to change their lives forever. Following the computer trail, two criminals enter their home and brutally kill Sofia's mother and uncle, giving rise to a settling of scores that has been brooding for almost twenty years. Sofia will discover that the truth has always been withheld from her and that Santo hides a dark past as an affiliate of the N'drangheta.

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

My Name Is Vendetta delivers a solid revenge story that brings grounded combat sequences and a strong emotional focus to its narrative. While it never manages to truly excel, fans of this branch of cinema should be able to find enough to appreciate...

Rated: 7.5/10

Ready Steady Cut

My Name Is Vendetta is a paint-by-brutal-numbers thriller that follows the yawn-inducing genre playbook step-by-step.

Rated: 1.5/5

Decider

My Name is Vendetta becomes a kind of coming-of-age story for Sofia, who newcomer Ginevra Francesconi plays with an intriguing, evolving mix of sadness, anger, and impelled resignation.

The story and the action work well together, and there isn't a wasted scene in the whole movie.

Rated: 3/5

Italian vengeance action movie. Interesting story. Former mafia enforcer gets his wife killed by former gang rivals. Goes into vengeance along with his young daughter. Thought this was going to be kind of like Hanna or Leon, sadly it was not as good 🍿🍿🍿/5 on Netflix

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

Just a personal opinion…… its just a really terrible “redemption story”, its oddly weirdly sexual & has an extremlyyyyyyyy uncomfortable relationship between a father & daughter….. while some parts are nice (while nice to spend time time with your daughter & bond)…. I feel it goes a lillllll bit way way way way way way way way way way too far & it felt like husband & wife… not father & daughter..?? & once again… just a personal opinion, but it felt like watching a live action anime lol There was no sense of realism in any part of the action & i honestly couldn't stop laughing…. I haven't really looked into the movie but i hope it’s not a low-budget film & wasn't a “multi-million dollar” backed film…. I guess it was alright if it was a starter project or something🤷‍♂️ Just a rando on the internet tho… i just found it so bad i had to write a review🤣💀🤷‍♂️

This is a great movie. I don't understand why it does not have a higher rating. I really enjoyed it. It was not long and drawn out. Not boring at all with great action. Definitely worth watching.

Sam W

A less than typical revenge thriller with stunning scenery, raw emotional acting and brutally violent action scenes. The plot and characters are pretty standard and quite limited but the dark and serious style is good and the ending was quite dramatic.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
