Herzog's muscular cinema in a Hollywood form that remains (or tries to be) auteur-driven. A film that is successful only halfway, lacking the ability to evoke strong emotions but still lingers beneath the surface. (6.5) more
At the time, they were heavily criticized, but today they tend to be re-evaluated as if they were the Beastie Boys or Run DMC. For me, they are average; they made a lot of forgettable stuff but also something worth saving. "Strade di città" is definitely a cult classic! more

De Niro has created a character he has become trapped in over the years, while Pacino hasn’t; instead, he reinvents himself each time and astonishes as if it were the first. "Scarface" and "Carlito's Way" are more than enough for a life sentence. more

He’s good at what he does, but it’s a shame he’s become a victim of his own character (Jack Sparrow). It’s harsh to say, but... the only way to make a comeback is to do another movie with Tim Burton or at least win an Oscar, since that's how it works in Hollywood, unfortunately. more

The grandfather of modern action cinema as well as the father of Walter Hill and John Woo. Epoch-making. more
"Dear Santa Claus, I would like you to make Bruno Vespa's book hit the charts, because that way he calms down a bit and stops nagging our souls by presenting it on every show. The only thing left is to see him on the sidelines during soccer matches, or in National Geographic documentaries instead of the monitor lizards."

When it comes to comedy in pantomime, everyone thinks of Chaplin. He was neither his copy nor his shadow. And he was no less... more
From another planet and a different philosophy. An excellent singer-songwriter and a refined composer. His discography features masterpieces that do honor to Italy. more
The manifesto of Buckethead. A carefree, captivating, and intense first part, where the irony of the acoustic sections occasionally breaks through; and a second part made up of explosive experiments on hard'n'heavy bases, where the robotic and frenzied riffs typical of the shredder return. Superb. more
