This movie is an excellent example that you shoudn't always care about other people's rates and reviews. It's funny, sometimes close to over the top, but it balances quite good. The story is about that it's not always easy to maintain a good balance between being ambitious in your job, having a good loving relationship and raising a child together, and at times you can fail in all three of them. Yet when you hit rock bottom, you can have new encounters that open you up for new perspectives and dealing with life. Sometimes life is dealing with the lows and keep trying your best. If you can relate to this you probably like this movie better. I watched it with my wife and it made us laugh and relax.
I didn't like this movie at all. Perhaps this was a movie for die hard Moretti fans that saw all his movies? For me the story was very weak, the pace was utterly slow and clearly they should prohibit certain directors to act in their own movies. There were some nice shots and sure I could smile a few times. I guess a metafilm can work, but I couldn't relate to neither one of the stories and both of the stories were quite superficial and unexciting. In short: I agree with the reviewer of the gardian who writes: "I'm sure the future will be brightened by another, better Moretti film - this one is best forgotten."
I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. It has one of the best scenario for movies that I've seen in the last years. It's unexpected, intense and emotional, amazingly! What a relief to finally see a thriller again, where a good scenario is more important than the action, the music and the special effects. This movie has an amazing scenario as a backbone. It starts with a fact that will make everyone of us fear for an operation, the fact that we can stay awake during an operation because the narcoses doesn't put us asleep. But this fact is just the start of the excitement. You should see this movie, it's such a relief after a lot of brainless movies to see something sharp, intelligent and original!
