Tre metri sopra il cielo

When a book is so good as the book by which this film was made is, you kind of expect the movie, well, not to suck, but let's say you don't keep your hopes up very much, cause you usually end up disappointed (The Notebook doesn't count). But this... As little as my hopes were, this kept disappointing me throughout all hour and a half of its duration. I mean, come on!!! This is one of the most romantic and beautiful stories of which I read, and during the movie, I actually was bored, in the moments when I wasn't annoyed. The acting was terrible, as was the script. It seems like director wanted to include as much scenes from the book as possible, but then forgot to sort it by order, so everything was incredibly confusing and dull. The relationship of Step and Babi, which is very delicate and which is the main topic, was not appropriately unfolded, and not as much attention as it should was given to it,so everything looks emotionless and ridiculous. I must add that this ugly guy who plays Step has probably ruined any other re-reading of this book to me, cause I'll be imagining him as Step, and not the perfect guy as Step should be and as I imagined him before the stupid film. I give it 3 stars simply out of respect to the wonderful book which I recommend to everyone, and that lovely view of the sea and sunset. So... If you didn't read the book, just go do that and forget about the movie cause you just won't know what the hell is happening. And if you like the book, and want to see this movie, just skip that little part and go buy yourself the next part of the book named "Ho Voglia Di Te",and that will be time and money well spent. If you still decide to watch it, my voice will be in your heads telling you "I told you so!" all the time.

this movie isn't very good and the experience is much better if you read the book, book moves you more and hits you directly in the hart (written by Federico Moccia). Also, it's in Italian so that's another no. Male actor is hot while the female looks a little nerdy to me and doesn't capture Babi's personality well. Aditional characters are good and the movie is exciting and is mostly based on anticipation of love and first hookups. You we'll miss a great experience if you don't watch it. This Drama/romance is something that will deeply move you and make you cry in a good way over life that passed and that's going to pass. It describes first loves, broken harts and passing life exceptionally well. I wish they make Hollywood version because this movie will be a blockbuster. Just so you know, Roman teenagers send this book with short messages so that tell's much about popularity and quality of this book

"Tre metri sopra il cielo" is a really beautiful love story with an European stamina. I really recommend this movie if you plan a romantic evening. Babi seems a bit nerdy and a little too young, but the scenario is great and it will capture you right from the beginning. Also, the end of the movie is very European. Step is the dream of every adolescent girl: he is handsome, he likes to live on the edge and he rides a great motorcycle. Let's hope that the movie can be seen also in other countries than Italy and I'm expecting the sequel "Ho voglia di te". Italians have great food, great movies and talented actors. Enjoy the movie!

One of the most beautiful movies i have ever seen...it's true it's a chick flick but who cares when you have Riccardo Scarmacio with his piercing green eyes? If you're in search for a typical romantic story set in an Italy breathtakingly beautiful, then go for it. Leave behind all misconceptions, preconceptions, get rid of the idea that the movie isn't as valuable as the book ( in case you read it ) and succumb in love's magical power. If you wanna laugh, cry and above all, dream, then this is the movie for you. If you like movies that require a second thought and a second viewing, then skip this one. 3msc doesn't require much of a thinking, what it does, nonetheless, require is a free mind and an endless power of dreaming with the eyes wide open. The love story between a bad boy ( the dream of every teenage girl )and a kinda nerd young girl mostly attracts adolescent viewers. But this movie is about the journey towards love through the eyes of 2 different people, one belonging to a high social class, and the other struggling to do everything to escape from his world, from an attitude of revolt to illegal motorcycles racings. The movie has everything what a movie for teenagers should have:excitement, adrenalin, adventure, the illusion that the love conquers all and 2 young and promising protagonists. All in all, give this movie a shot and you won't be disappointed.

I just want to make a premise. I haven't read the book from which this movie is based so I'm going to review only the movie.

I Watched this movie after a good friend of mine insisted telling me that "If you love love stories, you're gonna really love this one". I, by the way, suggested her to see A Walk to Remember (2002) which is, still today, my favourite movie of all time.

Just like the title of this review, and if you saw the movie I quote in my last paragraph, in my opinion Love (with capital L) is something different and not what we can see in this movie.

3MSC (this is the way italian teenagers refer to this movie) is a story between a good girl and a bad guy. If only for that, I can say that it's quiet realistic since it happens in the reaility too and I have a friend of mine who falled for a teen drug dealer (the common thought that "nobody can understand women" here is much more true) but is the way the movie choose to show us that I don't like it... LOVE is something that you feel inside, a strong feeling that goes beyond the attraction (almost phisical) that we see in this movie. To love someone doesn't mean "let's have sex". What we see in this movie is what I call a simple "crush" The only thing that can be truly romantic is the lockpad on the bridge scene which here in Italy became immediately a "must do" so much that many famous bridges grew in a few days a forest of lockpad.

I love love movies, I watched many of them (the most are american or english) and I can see the true love in those. I can't understand why in italian love movies there must be always a "good" character who takes drugs and the sex part. It's not that I don't like the movie (I love the american pie franchise for instance but those movie don't called theirselves "love stories" and we know that we're are watching a teen-comedy) but I don't like that people receive a message that say "taking drugs and having sex underage is cool"

Let's talk about the acting... Scamarcio has the very same expression for the whole time. I think he was chosen for the role of Step only for his "bad face" appearance and not for his acting skills... Many of you who are not italian may have seen this movie dubbed so you can't understand what I mean but this is something that modern italian movies has: a theatrical way of acting instead of that of a movie. There is no realism in these movies, both in dialogues and face expressions.

To leave a rate, I confess that I Wanted to give a 1 but I choose a 2 out of 10 because is a little bit better than any desica/boldi trash movies.
