| Independent on SundayGilbert AdairThere's really no getting away from it. As an actor, Moretti is a ham. Parma ham, maybe, but ham nevertheless. |
| User ReviewAnthony MIt's just my perfect film, as different as that may be. It's subtle, funny, sophisticated, irreverent and charming. Well written and executed. |
| User ReviewMarilena GOne of the best Nanni Moretti's Films! My favorite line: "D'Alema, di' qualcosa di sinistra, ...". |
| User ReviewGianni V"La sera del 28 Marzo, del 1994, dopo la vittoria della destra, per la prima volta in vita mia mi feci una canna. " |
| User ReviewLenah SMuy buena pelÃcula de Moretti. La vi un par de veces y siempre me hace reir- Un divino. |
| User ReviewViviana MProbabilmente il migliore di Moretti. Con riferimenti memorabili, e scene da manuale. Chi l'ha visto e capito, non si è stupito quando Nanni ha detto 'con questo tipo di dirigenti non vinceremo mai' alla manifestazione dell'Ulivo di Piazza Navona del 2002. Per chi pensa davvero che, alla fine, sono tutti cresciuti guardando 'happy days'. |
| User ReviewCarlo VD'Alema, dì qualcosa, reagisci... Dai, dì qualcosa, D'Alema, rispondi, non ti far mettere in mezzo sulla giustizia proprio da Berlusconi... D'Alema, dì una cosa di sinistra. Dì una cosa anche non di sinistra, di civiltà ... D'Alema, dì una cosa, dì qualcosa, reagisci... Non dobbiamo reagire, eh... Nervi saldi, dobbiamo rassicurare... A forza di rassicurare, ci arriva una bastonata il giorno delle elezioni... Ho voglia di litigare con qualcuno! |
| User ReviewArianna B"Aprile" is a deliriously funny autobiographical whimsy from Nanni Moretti with serious overtones like the plight of Albanian refugees. The movie is centered around his becoming a father. As the film wryly puts it, the mother is doing fine; it's the father who is having panic attacks. While being in the quarterfinals of picking the child's name, he is obsessing over what movies to see in order to properly influence his child's development. Surprisingly with the exception of "Underground," they are all Hollywood films and I remember also being none too thrilled with "Strange Days." At least, Moretti did not see "Braveheart" or that kid would be scarred for life. On a professional level, Moretti is chided for not directing many films but remember with filmmaking it is always quality over quantity. At least, he does not make commercials. His latest project is a 50's style musical which he abandons on the first day of shooting, in favor of a documentary about Italian politics. But soon it becomes abundantly clear that he may have bit off more than he could chew, considering the wide variety of viewpoints and news sources.(I understand most of it but wish I knew more about the independence movement that is mentioned.) For example, Moretti has a hard time just explaining to a French colleague how Silvio Berlusconi can legally own so many networks.(In fact, "Aprile" starts with Moretti surviving Berlusconi's election in 1994 by smoking a huge joint in the company of his mother, which reminds me of a story a friend told me about getting stoned when Reagan was elected in 1980.) Throughout, Moretti never gives up on making a better world for his offspring, even imagining taking to a soapbox in London's Hyde Park to be heard. |
| User ReviewAndrea GSurrealistic and fanny in the Moretti style,the film develops through the political period in Italy in wich we assisted to the fall of the "Sinistra" government and the rise of the first Berlusconi's government,saw with the tipical Moretti's irony.Absolutely to watch!Fantastci the beginnig scene with Moretti smoking a joint watching the news on TV |
| User ReviewTina-Louise SCarino e piacevole, con un Nanni Moretti in piena nevrosi...La sua vita privata, contraddistinta dalla prossima paternità , raccontata sullo sfondo della vita politica italiana di fine anni '90.Peccato che la sceneggiatura si perda un po' per strada.. |
