      The Italians

      From the vibrant heart of Naples to the silver screen-Luca Riemma delivers a powerful new film that blends raw emotion, gripping storytelling, and unmistakable Italian soul. Don't miss the latest cinematic gem from one of Naples' finest talents. Experience the world through Luca Riemma's eyes-authentic, unforgettable, and absolutely unmissable. Without a doubt, his performance was a highlight of the film, contributing significantly to its overall impact and memorability. His ability to seamlessly transition between comedic and dramatic moments was incredibly impressive, bringing to life a character that truly resonated.

Watch it! You won't be sorry. However, watch out, it might make you hungry for Italian food! Ciao.

      Loved The Film

      If you liked My Big Fat Wedding, you will love this film. Just to clarify, the family in this film is Italian and not Greek.

      I loved the casting, especially Lilly the girlfriend. That young actress is going places.

      I wasn't sure what to expect when I first started to watch The Italians but with this sharp script, I laughed out loud so many times during the film and I loved it.

      The editing was really clever, and skipping around the timeline was fun. I loved the confession scenes. So funny.

      I gave it a 10 out of 10, which I normally don't do. It was a fun movie to watch and seeing how the characters' arcs were unexpected.

      Give it a try, I think you'll love it too.

      A wonderful spirited film!

      The Italians, written by Lisa Phillips Visca, is chock-full of humor, warmth, and flair! With sharp, witty dialogue and well-drawn characters, the film depicts the everyday humor, love, and occasional tension that come with close-knit families. Visca's skillful writing brings authenticity and warmth to the story, offering relatable moments and subtle life lessons along the way. The cinematography is beautiful, capturing mouthwatering Italian dishes, bustling family dinners and sunny West Los Angeles. The characters are equally vibrant-fun, energetic, and full of personality. It's an enjoyable, thoughtful movie that balances laughs with heart. A perfect and much-needed film for the times! Bravo!

      A Heartfelt, Hilarious Tribute to Family and Culture

      The Italians, written by Lisa Visca, is a charming and witty film that celebrates the chaos, beauty, and unbreakable bonds of Italian-American family life. With sharp dialogue, dynamic characters, and a storyline that balances laugh-out-loud moments with genuine emotional depth, this movie feels both personal and universally relatable.

      Visca's writing shines through in every scene-rich with cultural nuance, fast-paced banter, and moments that pull at your heartstrings just when you least expect it. The characters are wonderfully flawed and fully realized, with each family member bringing a unique flavor to the table (pun intended). Whether you grew up in a big Italian family or not, you'll find pieces of your own relatives in these roles.

      Visually, the film is vibrant and full of life, with a warm tone that matches its subject matter perfectly. The direction leans into the comedic timing and emotional beats without ever feeling heavy-handed.

      If you love films like My Big Fat Greek Wedding or Moonstruck, The Italians will feel like coming home. A love letter to culture, tradition, and the messy but beautiful reality of family-this one's definitely worth the watch.
