A cinematic journey that transcends the screen, exploring the evolution of cinema, love, and politics in a contemporary context. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Original Score: 7/10 | Mar 14, 2024

With very pronounced ups and downs in its crazy and chaotic narrative, the film leaves in its title, A Brighter Tomorrow, the promise of a more even and satisfactory movie. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Feb 5, 2024

The film-within-a-film narrative, with Moretti playing an annoying version of himself, grows more dull and pretentious by the minute.

Full Review | Original Score: D- | Nov 17, 2023

Sadly, the initial momentum doesn’t really hold, and Moretti’s film soon becomes directionless.

A rare film that will make you think and feel good, at the same time.

[Nanni Moretti] presents us his most luminous and music-filled movie, a song about facing the future with joy, that leads to a collective march reminiscent of Fellini's 8½ (1963). Because there isn't revolution without optimism. [Full review in Spanish]

The artifice is, to say the least, brilliant: cinema within cinema in which life looks at itself. [Full review in Spanish]

This Italian filmmaker [Nanni Moretti] places all bets on optimism in a luminous comedy where he attacks Netflix and defends the future of film in theaters. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Original Score: 5/5 | Sep 14, 2023

A film about how the western society is losing their critical thinking. And all of that, with the Moretti’s cinical humor. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 11, 2023

A political film, perhaps the best of all present possible films, but it is also a farewell work without sadness about leaving a world behind... [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Jun 12, 2023

It gives the impression that Moretti compiles ideas and inserts them as they occur without managing to fully integrate them organically throughout the footage. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Jun 12, 2023

As indulgent as an ice-cream sundae and twice as forgettable.

Full Review | Jun 9, 2023

Moretti does what he does best: play a self-obsessed fictionalized version of himself.

Full Review | Original Score: C+ | May 27, 2023

As is his custom, the egotistical actor/filmmaker vociferates his views on current cinema and other topics, with various tributes to classics and gratuitous musical interjections. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | May 26, 2023

A film full of life. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Original Score: 4.5/5 | May 25, 2023

For every engaging character-driven moment or bit of warm humor, there’s unearned, even irritating quirkiness.

Full Review | Original Score: C+ | May 25, 2023

To say the latest film from Nanni Moretti, A Brighter Tomorrow, is both mawkish and antiquated would be an understatement in attempting to capture how gratingly oblivious it is in mistaking obnoxiousness for charm.
