El inmortal: Una película de Gomorra

Gomorra, the series this movie is based on, was a brilliant insight to the poverty and crime in Naples masterfully written by journalist Roberto Saviano. The first 2 seasons were based on the book by Saviano and provide all the necessary closure for the tragic story of Ciro Di Marzio. The rest of the TV show was written to bank of the popularity of the first 2 seasons.

The movie is a further attempt to bank on the very beloved character of Ciro. There is no character development in this movie. There are surprises, but they're very in-your-face. There's very little of reality in this film. It's sad to see the brilliance of Saviano turn into a mediocre thriller. That said, I did enjoy the movie. But it so much less than what it could have been. In fact, the whole Gomorra universe after Season 2 is simple feel-good entertainment.
