Dernière nuit à Milan

At last, an Italian genre film - thriller, noir - to be really proud of. A plot capable of surprising, masterful performances by the actors in both the main roles and the supporting cast, intelligent and never mannered direction. But what is most pleasing is that the Italian-ness goes beyond the obvious production and plot details-the setting, the characters, the cultural references- , enriching the dialogues with that typical irony proper to our country: we are brilliant even and above all in moments of crisis, even if there is a decision at stake on which our lives depend. The grade does not go toward 10 only because of some minor shortcomings in the mise-en-scene, such as some details in the key sequence (which nonetheless holds one's breath for pace and twists). An 8, however, is the minimum, well-deserved and full. Let's hope Andrea Di Stefano can return to our country to make a new film in the future.

Even if I'm Italian, I usually don't like italian thrillers so much. Well, this one is very, very different. It makes you feel you're inside the movie the whole time, even if there are not so many extraordinary special effects or chase scenes. You can feel from the very beginning it has a wonderful screenplay, great direction and excellent soundtrack.

Almost all actors (Favino and Caridi on top) are really amazing in their characters! I only wish some of them had used a less pronounced southern accent, or at least to have the subtitles, because some of the clips (fortunately not too many) are really hard to follow if you are not from Calabria or Sicily.

I watched this movie at the San Sebastián film festival along with friends. We were mesmerized. The acting and script are incredibly powerful, the plot being quite original. A must watch for anyone who loves a good thriller. And the fact that it is Italian and combines a little bit of Italian culture, pasta, loud women and mafia adds to the interest even for me a woman not particularly keen on mafia movies. Too bad they have not yet released it in Spain.

I loved all of the main characters and the actress who plays the wife of the main character is a great comedian. She captures the attention from the start and it's a great credit to the director that she is given a role where she can show all her potential. A movie not to be missed! Suspenseful, fun, moving and electric!

Very nice movie! And I'm speaking from someone who usually doesn't like the genre and 8/10 hates the italian way of acting, sometimes very poor. From the intro with an amazing aerial view of Milan by night with a perfect, thrilling soundtrack, the plot unfolds in very clever way. I liked the flashback part, not exaggerated, just helpful to understand the story. The acting is pretty good, the rythm is perfect. The sound editing play the lion's share here: the music is truly remarkable, really "pulp", perfectly timed. This film for me was a huge surprise. You won't regret the choice. To be seen!

A great story, but unfortunately poorly turned into a movie. The story has great potential but the script is quite cheap.

I like watching non-American movies, especially thrillers, so I started watching this movie with great anticipation. The scenes were so-so for the first few minutes and it almost put me off continuing to watch. It was only later in the film that it became clear why.

There are quite a few holes in the story that could have been shown much better, with more authenticity and more realistically shown. For example, when we see dozens of fellow cops at the crime scene, and the main protagonist is brought a glass of water by a forensics officer who has left the scene (would a forensics officer really leave a crime scene and bring water to someone who is hidden behind other people??) .

Too bad for a lost opportunity.
