Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence star in this pretty enjoyable sci-fi romantic action movie: not a masterpiece, but a very good product, with an interesting script.
"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
One of the most awaited Halloween releases of all time, it's a pretty long and somewhat boring adaptation of the Broadway musical. The mise-en-scène is impeccable and the cast is great. It's not enough, though. Mark: 6.5 / 10
"Sanders may pay tribute to the palette of Miyazaki and to classic Disney animation, but his nihilist reflex gives way to commercial sentimentality, reducing morality to manipulation." - Armond White (National Review). Nothing to add. A disappointment. Period. Mark: 5.5 / 10
