Critics Consensus

Loro uses the larger-than-life exploits of an infamous public figure to present a messily compelling snapshot of how power attracts -- and corrupts.

Paolo [Sorrentino]'s films are full of beauty and decadence... In this particular instance, the decadence owes to this actual man who was actually decadent.

This sometimes beguiling but more often strangely engineered movie continues, stretching its increasingly muddy soup of gleaming nastiness and gaudy power plays until even the central portrait of the man himself is more cartoonish than corrosive.

1/4

For all of Sorrentino's prodigious gifts as a scenarist, "Loro" is a disturbing movie, for all the wrong reasons and, despite its self-consciously arty pretensions, a breathtakingly callow one.

Maybe as a non-italian I would have found this movie pretty boring, who knows. The problem is (well, sometimes is a problem, sometimes is not) that I am indeed Italian and I loved it. Sorrentino and Servillo together again: the best my country has to offer! And thanks mostly to them, to "LORO" I've enjoy every single scene. Debauchery, money and power, all wrapped in the director poetry and the actor personification of... well, evil? Yes, unfortunately I have to thank that brilliant salesman, that egotistic personality, that evil midget: something good came out of his existence at last.

The film tries to be too artistic, and it is a little obvious during the scene by the pool when ecstasy pills are falling from the sky and the extras are trying to catch them. The first half an hour of the movie introduces and focuses on a character, Sergio, that ends up having little relevance to the rest of the movie. Servillo, as Berlusconi, doesn't make an appearance until then after which the movie focuses on him and his villa in Sardinia, with a couple of other key characters in his life. His acting was excellent but the story line, or lack thereof, really let things down. Sadly I was very disappointed with this film and the potential it has. In all it was quite boring.

One of the worst films I have ever attempted to watch. Not worth the hour I have wasted watching it. It was literally the first time I left the cinema before the film ended.

This is the worst movie EVER. Embarrassing and degrading to women. Doesn't have a single likeable character. The plot is a disaster. There's an earthquake that leads to nowhere wedged in the middle... what genre is this movie again? And extremely overendulgent with time and scenes that don't pay off.

Paolo Sorrentino uses striking visual imagery to tell the story of a lost man and his ideals, that hold no real depth, which is lacking in its pressuring symbolism. For this reason it fails to connect.
