LA RECENSIONE
So, basically, there's this hand here, a hand I say, that comes down from above and grabs o' Sorrentino and shakes him like FIU VIOW PEM PEM, you know? And then the little music starts here in Naples, with the violins auuuuummm, muuuu mmmmmm, so much beauty, but what am I saying, so much poetry, so much POETRY IN THIS CITY that when I look at the sea and laugh, it seems like it puts me on a cross! Do you understand what we have here in Naples? Do you understand? No? And go to hell, oh! O' bocchinar'! Let's get back to us. Dear Paolo, I have something to say: Ammo', but you're REALLY AMAZING!!!!

I don’t like reality anymore, reality is poor.
With È stata la mano di Dio he has surpassed himself and signed his best film. Congratulations Paolo!
By The Punisher
Mediocre movie, much less than what the trailers and the television promotion built around it promised.
It is NOT a movie I would watch twice.
By Redwolf
The film is truly mediocre and the praises and tributes I read here and there are completely unjustified.
A banal narrative that unfolds laboriously between stereotypes and images from a tourist board.
By joe strummer
Sorrentino has no fear of showing his reality in its pure form, without filters or censorship.
This is precisely the uncommon merit of the film: it creates a social and family portrait full of dignity.
