Even if really thrilled after the first episode, I have to admit the following ones slowly but definitely get (far) worse.

First of all, it was supposed this would be a documentary on history of nuclear warfare and how it forged our modern world...instead almost half of every episode is devoted to the war in Ukraine, observed from a typical neoconservative viewpoint.

Second, here and there you'll see some claims proven definitely false and lacunous reconstructions - for whoever has (or wants to have) a good knowledge of some of the most important historical facts cited, this is really bad.

Third, the effort put in costructing a biased narrative hides potentially truly interesting facts and events about nuclear weapons and its implications (pretty undocumented for the big audience).

So condone me if I'm disappointed and I'd not recommend it - neither if you search for "knowledge" nor "entertainment"

I am so sorry, but this "thing" is probably the worst one I've seen in the last ten years.

The only good thing I can do (since I cannot unsee it) is to warn you: don't fall, like I did, for the advertising or for some sequences grabbed from the original Jackson's trilogy - this thing has nothing to do with all that.

And more...unfortunately and pretty incredibly, it is horrible from pretty ANY point of view: the animation is astonishingly trashy. The music, trivial and tasteless. The plot, predictable and dumb. The characters...oh my, they are shallow, forgettable and cliched to a level you'll ache from cringiness. The plotholes are embarassing, etc.

Maybe someone with an enormous sense of humour could laugh from the first to the last scene. By myself, I still wonder who had the audacity of sending this monstruosity in theaters.

This movie includes at least four really good Italian actors and actresses - and this potential gets wasted by a broad range of defects.

It's like a rotten cake: the first layer is poor writing - its predictability and characters' underdevelopment. The second is, infortunately, unnecessary vulgarity - used to hide plot's poorness and get an easy laugh. Above all, trying to make the cake look "modern", there's a bad and cumbersome imitation of American wokeness, stereotyped and not even ironic.

In the end, if you're searching for a witty and brillian Italian comedy, skip this movie. If instead you want a "cinepanettone" with woke flavour...
