Gli infedeli

*" 'Gli Infedeli' is a 2020 Italian anthology film that weaves stories of infidelity and male fragility, with moments of sharp wit but frequently falling into predictable patterns. It does well in some genres, notably in being very quick-witted with an odd streak of dark humor, though it falters on uneven pacing and character development.". The cast in ensemble-Riccardo Scamarcio, Valerio Mastandrea-are energetic performers, but the film banks a lot on stereotypes regarding love and relationships without contributing anything new to the genre. *Gli Infedeli* is, after all, watchable but basically uneven: there's laughter here, but it doesn't finally affect the viewer.

An Italian black comedy. It tells several stories of infidelities, mainly of men but also of some women. Filled with sarcasm, awkward sexual jokes and situations that can think about how difficult fidelity is. What is interesting about the film is the macho justifications that are used for the acts that are committed and how persistent women are to describe the deception. The first two stories are the best in the plot. In fact, it handles each of the stories separately and some are not related only until the end. Do you remember "Wild Stories"? That he told different stories in the same movie, because this is the same. It's actually based on the French movie of the same name, only the French ending is better and leaves you with a bittersweet and hilarious taste.

I don't understand the bad reviews here. You need to have the patience to watch a movie till the end. And this one is entertaining enough from the first episode. I really enjoyed the sense of humour, maybe other people found it dull but it's not honestly. The last two episode were so funny and the finale is great too! Hoping to see more of such vignettes on Netflix.

Everything looks dull, and old, like a 60's movie...Dialogue is so stupid...I kept looking for 20 minutes, hoping for an improvement...just a waste of time.

"The Players" isn't politically correct nor is it for all audiences but it's zany characters and storylines make for an entertaining watch.

In this comedy, a collection of vignettes captures the foolishness of several men as they fumble with fidelity and relationships.

Riccardo Scamarcio holds ground in this Italian remake of the French film "Les Infidèles". Fast paced and at times over the top, "The Players" works best when the three main characters are on screen together (which unfortunately isn't very often). However, the film does offer laughs when you'd feel the most uncomfortable. It's a decent enough remake with definite Italian flare.
