Movie Reviews

Austin Chronicle - 10/10 by Nick BarbaroVisconti returns to Milan, the city of his birth, in this story about the politics of class involved in the move to the big city of a family of impoverished southerners.
The Spectator - 10/10 by Isabel QuiglyHere, Visconti has every sort of strong contrast -Italy's two nations, the north and the south, industry and the land, simplicity and sophistication.
Village Voice - 10/10 by Alan ScherstuhlThe Parondis' lives are difficult but gorgeous; boxing is terrible but riveting; the city offers everything even as it takes everything away.
Cinema em Cena - 10/10 by Pablo VillaçaApesar de ser mais longo do que deveria e de se entregar ao melodrama ocasional, o filme praticamente se transforma em um épico familiar e conta com performances enérgicas e inesquecíveis (especialmente de Salvatori e Girardot).
PopMatters - 10/10 by Michael Barrett... an epic of postwar Italy and a melodrama of seismic proportions boasting great photography and performances...
culturevulture.net - 8/10 by Arthur LazereEven with [Rocco's] undeniable excess, the climactic moments transcend style and are profoundly moving.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Desson ThomsonA richly textured drama, resoundingly alive with characters.
eye WEEKLY - 8/10 by Jason AndersonBeneath the neorealist façade simmers an intensity that is far more lurid and operatic in nature.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) - 8/10 by Ken HankeWhat you end up with is more an entertaining, overheated mish-mash than a great classic.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 6/10 by Emanuel LevyOne of Visconti's and Italian cinema's masterpieces
