      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.

      Just what we needed

      Timing is everything and this feel good, humorous and relatable drama about an awkward, crazy "meet the parents" clash is just what we needed.

      How boring life would be if we were all alike. Our differences compliment each other and this film captures the essence of love through compromise and humor.

      A great collaboration of screenwriting, casting, directing and acting to help us laugh at ourselves and shed a tear when most of us have become emotionally jaded with violent movies.

      We enjoyed watching the story unfold and actually have an ending as most movies today leave you hanging without a conclusion and we are left imagining our own ending to the story.

      Thank you!! This film is just what we needed!

      Very Grounded!

      The Italians is a heartfelt and thoroughly enjoyable film. It offers an authentic portrayal of life, love, and the complexities of relationships. At its core, it's a story about family, forgiveness, and the emotional ties that bind us.

      The film masterfully balances raw, gut-wrenching moments with genuine joy, making for an emotionally rich experience. Every line feels purposeful and genuine, and the cast is exceptionally well-chosen-each actor brings a natural chemistry that radiates from the screen.

      The Italians will have you laughing one moment and wiping away tears the next. It touches the heart, uplifts the spirit, and reminds us of the value of compassion. A true feel-good gem, it's both a beautiful work of art and a celebration of the human spirit.

      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.

      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!
