Robert P Very enjoyable--I don't understand the complaints. Watch it with Italian dialog + subtitles. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/23/24 Full Review Linda L It's not the movie, it's your reviewer. Your Reviewer should learn the difference between the word "taught," and the word "taut"! I read reviews on your page and I realize that the standards of grammar, syntax, etc. are hitting rock-bottom! Do you have editors there at all? You can always hire me.

We then go to "Three Months Earlier" as we are introduced to Yara, a 13 yo who loves rhythmic gymnastics. Then one day, after leaving the gym, Yara disappears... At this point we are less than 10 minutes into the movie. Couple of comments: this film is based on true events, and centers on how the prosecutor in Bergamo, Italy, goes about trying to find the killer(s). In and of itself, this could've/should've been a great starting point for a riveting "whodunnit" murder mystery. Alas, it didn't happen, and it is clear that the underlying script is what holds this movie back. The dialogue is dull, and as a result the performances feel dull too. I must admit I was not familiar with either the director Marco Tullio Giordana. Or anyone in the cast. "Yara" started streaming on Netflix abut a year ago, but I just recently stumbled onto it, and decided to take a chance on it. I shouldn't have. Of course don't take my words for it, so if you are in the mood for a foreign murder mystery, I'd readily suggest you check it out and draw your own conclusion.

Based on a real story, this movie, as if it were a thriller, keeps your nerves on the edge. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/26/21 Full Review Audience Member A sad history that could be turn out a great movie, but the direction was poorly made, the acting awful.... It didn't stand out as the case would deserve it. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews
