Margherita Pellegrino

Emotional, intense and truly shocking at times, the movie presents the known facts on a golden plate for the audience to make up their own mind. It's violent, raw, vibrating with tension and punctuated with clever irony.

Metro Times (Detroit, MI)

Jeff Meyers

Not to indulge in clich, but given that Rossi Stuart penned the script with five other writers, it probably shouldn't be a surprise that so many cooks created a meal that's all sauce and no spaghetti.

What is missing is any sort of psychological insight. Just what made Renato run? You won't find out here.

To borrow Robert Evans's famous quotation about "The Godfather," you can smell the spaghetti, but less sauce might have helped.
