3/10
Nearly but not quite
17 September 2007
A good cast - Ambra Angiolini is stunning, Serra Yilmaz is captivating, Margherita Buy is lovely and Lunetta Savino is herself, eminently watchable although memories of "raccontami" surface "in continuo". Precluding the utterly banal homosexual sub-plot which by now we're all completely bored with the film is quite engaging.

There are some lovely scenes from the streets of Rome and the film is very true to modern everyday parlance.

The question that remains after watching it is, "what were you trying to tell me Ferzan?". Perhaps he didn't want to say anything but just felt like making a film about some average people, in which case he should have chucked out the homosexual aspect altogether.

One of the best aspects of this film is the theme song that goes with it which was written and performed by Neffa. The video is excellent - even if it doesn't quite concentrate enough on Ambra Angiolini!

Nearly but not quite - three out of ten.
