Directed and played by the Canadian enfant prodige Xavier Dolan, this is a pretty intriguing and somewhat disturbing adaptation of the theatrical pièce by Michel Marc Bouchard. Interesting, but not unmissable.
A pretty conventional rom-com film, with a fairytale ending and a couple of great actors. Nothing more, in my opinion. An enjoyable experience, though. Mark: 6.5 / 10
Long awaited sequel of the awesome first chapter and most successful animated feature of all times, this enjoyable product is basically an extension of the original instalment. Without strokes of genius. Mark: 7.5 / 10
"Exercise of style" is often a pretty abused expression to indicate a movie (or else) that is a sort of showoff of the director: in this case, unfortunately, it's totally appropriate. It's not a failure (Silvio Orlando's performance is monumental and the visual aspect is awesome), but Sorrentino's approach, in my opinion, has undertaken an insubstantial direction. Mark: 6.5 / 10
