[A] meandering but richly detailed drama. Go to Full Review

4/5
It’s a sad, melancholic movie, superbly orchestrated and perfectly played. Won’t do much for the reputation of Naples though. Go to Full Review

Absorbing after you’ve made it through the first 20 minutes. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
The jazz-filled score and 70s rock ‘n’ roll needle drops round out what is, in the end, a really well crafted film. As a whole, it evokes Scorsese on an off-day, which is still better than a lot of cinema offered today. Go to Full Review
Edward Porter Sunday Times (UK) Mar 2, 2023
3/5
As Felice reacquaints himself with old haunts, Mario Martone’s film captures their atmosphere and the feelings they inspire in the long-absent native. Go to Full Review
Dennis Harvey 48 Hills Feb 27, 2023
Weaving in flashbacks to the protagonists’ teen years in the 1970s, Martone’s film hovers between crime thriller and character drama—both its hero and the viewer aren’t sure just which way it’s ultimately gonna fall until the final scene. Go to Full Review
