I put it on yesterday, completely at random.. Well, it definitely makes it into my personal ranking of films that I abandoned because they were so terrible (and there are very few of them, ed. note, the last one before this was "Shutter Island").. I couldn’t say why, but strangely, nothing, zero, nada about this film could justify my watching it.. Ritchie isn’t just some hack, but for me this is a movie that simply doesn’t work..

In my opinion, you're taking this visibility and marketing machine for Attiego 2.3 a bit too seriously. In the end, it's just a small group of skilled cosplayers directed by a squad of media (or social media) managers more brilliant (or lucky) than Napoleon at Austerlitz..
What’s wrong with you, are you missing Vincenzo Mollica? 😂
A curiosity: how did you manage to endure 52 minutes produced by Cecchetto from across the ocean who “gifted” us Britney Spears??

@[IlConte] "PorcoDiodo" could work?

In my opinion, you were more lucid in one of the comments where you talk about “bank account” than in the review, which is a prosopopoeia and diligent analysis of nothingness. Musically, this band is the same as itself and has nothing to say; the songs I’ve heard all seem interchangeable. It makes no sense to talk about artistic growth, maturation, sound research, or “high” terms like that when discussing a product specifically packaged to harvest success and make itself talked about. Pre-packaged opinions, diligent transgression carefully studied, aesthetic care to ensure the drooling of young and not-so-young fans, blatant mainstream posturing, and “of the winners.” This is what we are talking about; and it can be calmly admitted, with all due respect to the geniuses of marketing and production who milk a cow designed and assembled to please. What harm would that cause? Absolutely none.
But let’s not kid ourselves; let’s not talk about “Italian pride” in bringing kids closer to rock, and let’s not make an exegesis of a group of Pokémon idolized by the market. It’s intellectually dishonest before it’s even pathetic. A single facet of “Physical Graffiti” sweeps away what these characters have done or will ever do, and no musical, demographic, or economic evolution, no success or bank account can ever deny that. It’s not nostalgia; it’s being objective. It’s not being “haters”; it’s admitting that certain bands, musically, are of no use at all.
A small note on the concept of “haters”: it’s one of those rhetorical begging-the-question tricks, obviously typical of social networks, like “boomer” or “functional illiterate,” used by those who lack sufficient arguments to counter an idea or by those who are only interested in appearing “superior” at any cost. It’s stuff that oozes provincialism and insecurity in abundance.

"Slowly, the passion for video games turned into a passion (actually an obsession) for women. And if the money was already tight, ça va sans dire..."
Does this sentence hint at a precious Moccia-style review about the local pimp?

Great piece of review!
An album unknown to me, but guys, who chose that cover with a monstrous kitsch?

A terrible movie, or a little movie if you want to be nice, from an absolutely forgettable era (and indeed I've forgotten it, although I remember a bit about the good Bernardette Peters, an actress who knows her stuff)... Just when you say that this film sadly closes a circle, and indeed if I'm not mistaken from '90 onwards Clint will practically always direct himself, except for maybe two or three occasions...

You are so fake that you don’t have the slightest hope of making an impression, neither with a smile nor with a shudder.

I advise @[luckystar] (or some idiot fake of theirs) to carefully read this review: if you really want to try to suck, here are many, many interesting tips...

I have never been able to tolerate these characters, especially because of that annoying voice which, as I see it, taints their compositions.
It’s certainly perplexing that a group like this, which has achieved nothing short of flattering results, known by more or less everyone, would go on to release in 2022 (right?) an album with such a sloppy, hastily thrown together, poorly made, and unserious cover.
A more than decent review regardless of the opinion on the band.
