Tre metri sopra il cielo

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

I enjoyed this movie, in all it's inaccurate depictions of a romanticised Italy. It's perhaps not the best film I've ever seen, but it certainly merits a place in my favourite romantic movies list. While it's understandably not appropriate for everyone, for those who enjoy some sappy romance and a story loosely resembling a single woman's daydream or two- this will surely put a smile on your face. "Tre metri sopra il cielo" better understood if you speak Italian, or, at least have some sort of knowledge of Italian culture- sheds light on first loves, has a Romeo-Juliet forbidden love scenario and gives you a brief moment of butterflies in your stomach as you watch the convincing love between the two characters. While the movie had the potential to be better (by eliminating that annoying Radio presenter that narrates, for a start) for what it was -the story of an unconventional relationship between socialite and bad boy- it delivered very well. The acting was good, the filming quite beautiful and the script pretty standard. I will reiterate that this IS Italian, and so it probably won't be as effective to those who don't speak the language. It really isn't as wordy as other films, and the words that are spoken are intended for a sort of romantic impact- easily achieved in Italian, a very romantic language, not as easily translated into English. But very good nonetheless, definitely worth watching (With an open mind!).

"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!

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 Um Amor para Recordar (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.

If you're going to compare this movie to the book, don't waste your time. Is it also a bit different than the spanish version of the movie, albeit this version is older.

It's a perfect movie to watch alone on a sunday evening when you're trying to reconnect with yourself. Especially if you're in a moment in your life you're heartbroken. Is it one of the best movies made? No. But it's totally worth watching and it's different than most romantic movies. It really makes you think too. A love so strong, so intense yet so tragic. I think it hits the spot inside us a lot of other movies don't. Just watch it.
