Alexsander F Oct 2 Patrizia: "Ma l'ha fatto con mano! L'ha fatto con mano!" Marchino: "E allora? Che te ne frega?" Patrizia: "Hanno rubato!" Marchino: "Gli ha umiliati! Capito? È un atto politico! È un atto di liberazione nazionale! Contro i colonialisti inglesi! Per le Malvine!" . Patrizia: "But he used his hand! He used his hand!" Marchino: "So what? Who cares?" Patrizia: "They cheated!" Marchino: "He humiliated them! You understand? It's a political act! It's an act of national liberation! Against the English colonialists! For the Malvinas!" . Absolute Stunner!

If you spend too much on Tik Tok or watching shorts, the brain rot kicks in. I know, because it happens me. And this was a film I used to break out of my bad habits. The Hand of God is a bittersweet exploration of youth, memory, and destiny, where Paolo Sorrentino weaves a personal coming-of-age tale shaped by family love, sudden loss, and the unpredictable turns of fate. Through Fabietto’s eyes, the film captures the beauty and absurdity of everyday life in Naples, showing how grief can ignite artistic passion and how nostalgia colours the way we understand our past. It is both a tribute to the city’s vibrant spirit and a reflection on how life’s most painful moments can ultimately shape who we become. I'll give this a rewatch and I might change my score.

Perhaps it is a great movie, but I feel as if there is a lot of understanding of Italian culture necessary to get at this movie. I dearly hope that this is not an accurate depiction of life in Italy (at the time) for it looked terrible.

I had to stop watching halfway through and I very rarely do that for any movie.

The partly autobiographical film of the filmmaker’s youth makes effective use of long shots of the young man staring at the events unfolding around him during that time in life when you feel more like a spectator than a participant in your own life. It’s the tale of a people-watcher that becomes a filmmaker. Ultimately, forgettable. See more Read all reviews
