Servillo charms in his dual turn, then takes it up a notch when one brother shows off his childhood knack for impersonating his look-alike.

An ingenious blend of high drama and surprising whimsy.

This here is a slightly sweet, slightly sour tale of brotherly love. Emphasis on 'slight.'

Rated: 2/5

As a testament to Servillo's droll talents, it's often pleasurable to see him at work in Ando's unwieldy statement about current political affairs in Italy, as the film lacks finesse in nearly every other regard.

Rated: 2.5/5

Viva la Libert offers a tame political fantasia where more lacerating laughs are needed.

In all, this film fares so-so. Sometimes, it's a mildly amusing diversion; sometimes, it's cold spaghetti.

Rated: 2.5/4

A movie that defies categories and leaves one thinking about lots: politics, identity, personality, love, siblings, mid-life crises ... all done with a light touch. Toni Servillo is excellent.

Toni Servillo's performance is excellent in characterizing each of the two twin brothers. It makes this film a good political satire.

The oddball premise somehow works under the sublime control of Toni Servillo, and sparkling wit of the script. A worthy political satire. 7/10.

Hey...I liked it - interesting plot, but stunning backdrops in Rome, Paris and some French county estate. Plus, Toni is great playing the brothers Karamazov...PJS
