An average movie

Posted : 10 years ago on 11 May 2014 09:47

It was bound to happen. Indeed, at last, I have seen a movie with my dear film club which I didn’t thoroughly enjoy. I mean, it was actually a decent feature with some solid directing, some flawless acting and the kids were just hilarious (I especially enjoyed the fact that their behavior was always convincing and wasn’t plot driven like most of the children characters). Basically, I really had a hard time to connect with the parents . Indeed, even though they were both charismatic, the vader was pretty much a douche-bag hiding behind his art to explain his attitude and the mother was rather annoying as she kept nagging her husband to be someone he wasn’t. The fact they were both quite selfish and, as a result, put their kids on the side line didn’t help either. Usually, I don’t have a problem with flawed characters, in the contrary, maybe, it was the fact that it reminded me of my chaotic relationship with my own wife. Still, it was far from a being a bad movie, the time went by very quickly while watching this which is always a good sign and I could have spend more time with them just to see how their relationship would evolve. To conclude, even though it wasn’t really a homerun this time, it was still a decent watch and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you are interested in Italian movies.
