Cool story, slow movie

A really cool concept, especially considering it's based on a true story. I loved the music and the cinematography was well done. However, the storyline was slow and meandered a bit.

Refreshing for the 68' generation

The majority of critics have no clue about the significance of the events carefully crafted in this truly Italian opereta. I was 18 when this happened and it looked absolutely insane looking at this from America. Fortunately I speak Italian and actors are just fantastic. I will give special credits to Francois Cluzet, one of my favorite French actors. The events are those that happened that year of revolts in France and elsewhere, while this engineer Rosa makes the impossible to pass the same message with technology.

A story of freedom right from the Evil Empire

The script is not perfect. And, like all European movies, it is rather slow. But it's an amazing story of freedom right from the middle of the Evil Empire. Kings, Crusades, World Wars, and a handful of individuals looking for freedom. And 2020 is the probably the best time to launch this story.

Like an Italian car

This film has great esthetics, probably watchable on that alone, but as a whole is a mess. The narrative is so drawn out, with at least a dozen repetitions of the same joke of incredulity on the part of staid bureaucrats, that about 30 minutes in, you'd be better of stopping viewing.

Much better than the average rating

This is a beautiful retrospective of history. The soundtrack is amazing and the shots fits well with the story being told. I learned about a part of history that I didn't know about and that had huge implication for international ocean governance.
