I was kind of disappointed. Overall it was an okay movie, but not great. The opening credits with the amazing soundtrack was really promosing (loved that song: Fate Tiptoes to a Party). However, I was pretty bored after an hour. The story didn't have any interesting turns. This story missed something to keep my attention. The movie could've been thirty minutes shorter as well. It felt like a crime drama that has been done numerous times before.
The acting, music and camerawork were great. The writing could have been better. Maybe my expectations were a little high after reading al the loving reviews.

For me, it's neither, not a polizziotesco from the seventies nor a giallo either; and I have seen tons of them during my moviegoer life. It's simply a new kind of cinema: brilliant, intelligent, sensitive, a bit too complex and sophisticated for my empty brain. Very hard to follow because of a splendid editing. Powerful acting too, outstanding atmosphere, production design. You could find this kind of film from Spain or even Argentina, not only Italy. It is dark, bleak, but, I repeat, not very easy to understand nor explain in details. Anyway, it's a movie that it's also impossible to forget. I hope the director will continue after this one.
A great story, but unfortunately poorly turned into a movie. The story has great potential but the script is quite cheap.
I like watching non-American movies, especially thrillers, so I started watching this movie with great anticipation. The scenes were so-so for the first few minutes and it almost put me off continuing to watch. It was only later in the film that it became clear why.
There are quite a few holes in the story that could have been shown much better, with more authenticity and more realistically shown. For example, when we see dozens of fellow cops at the crime scene, and the main protagonist is brought a glass of water by a forensics officer who has left the scene (would a forensics officer really leave a crime scene and bring water to someone who is hidden behind other people??) .
Too bad for a lost opportunity.

Worth 2 hours of any ones time except Elon Musk, but he's not human. Don't understand why some reviews called it a Horror,(most likely AI done) not even a thriller but a suspense crime movie at it's best. Stunning intro scene I could watch every time my PC starts up. Don't love it, I'll refund the ticket, better still, Ill find a shrink in your location, IT'S THAT GOOD. Not going to explain the plot as thats just ruining anyones climax blip in their life. The sad thing about this movie and many like it is that they only come around once a year during 10 days in the form of the Italian International Film Fest. Just go and see it, and watch your back.
Even if I'm Italian, I usually don't like italian thrillers so much. Well, this one is very, very different. It makes you feel you're inside the movie the whole time, even if there are not so many extraordinary special effects or chase scenes. You can feel from the very beginning it has a wonderful screenplay, great direction and excellent soundtrack.
Almost all actors (Favino and Caridi on top) are really amazing in their characters! I only wish some of them had used a less pronounced southern accent, or at least to have the subtitles, because some of the clips (fortunately not too many) are really hard to follow if you are not from Calabria or Sicily.

- TriviaThe crew published ads in Chinese in Chinese-Italian magazines to find people from the Chinese community in Milan. Many people showed up to the casting process very excited about the opportunity to be represented realistically in an Italian movie, even if only a fraction of that community is shown onscreen.
- GoofsAt 59:37, Amore wipes his fingerprints from the steering wheel. When he gets out, however, he touches the side window and the door frame.
