Governance

Had not seen a good Italian movie in quite a while.

This is a very well crafted, directed and acted thriller, with a good story and an excellent pace, quite intense and entertaining.

A nice departure from the trash comedy-obsessed Italian cinema delivers nowadays....

How far the power can bring people to be scruple-free and with no limit ? This thriller is very well directed and very well interpreted.

I liked it a lot, very good film and outstanding actors!

"Governance" is the portrait of Renzo Petrucci, a rich, powerful and connected top manager, Coo of a major oil and gas company. Its destiny takes shape like in a cruel fairy tale. Morally ambiguous, ruthless yet loyal, Massimo Popolizio, who plays the role of Renzo, manages to make a character we really should not like, somehow likable. To me, he is one of the most formidable villain in modern thrillers. An outstanding performance!

Nervous drama thriller 'Governance explores one of the "hidden realities" of the oil industry: the linkages between politics and business And it's all anchored by a great performance from Massimo Popolizio who stars as Royal's general manager Renzo Petrucci, a pragmatist and an intriguer. When Renzo is forced to leave his job after corruption charges, he decides to take revenge but things get out of hand..... The film captures the unique power of corruption and beautifully investigates the psychological basis for evil. Worth the time!
