Joy B. @9mr_0 Dec 25 تحفة فنية لا يوجد قصة درامية اقرب لما يكون يوميات شخص مع بعض الكوميديا الساخرة اخراج و تصوير جميل جدا مع موسيقى رائعه See more Alejandro E @Alex970 Dec 19 What gives this Italian comedy its flavour is its biographical style, which almost mirrors real life. For those looking for options with minimal pretension See more William L @RT77267842 07/16/2021 A solid enough comedy about characters exploring relatively serious aspects of life, such as the changing nature of the world around them and the pursuit of personal expression, and finding in these pursuits a humor that runs through it despite their best intentions. I wouldn't call it the most profound or original film of its kind, as the jokes are pretty straightforward and grounded - a Joyce scholar that gradually becomes obsessed with soap operas, ultimately getting his friend to ask American tourists that have seen newer episodes what happens, claiming that he is ashamed but shouting out his questions from the top of a mountain, for one - but that doesn't mean they aren't funny or well-integrated in the story. The exception is the third act, which takes a more serious tone (counting on some form of connection to Moretti's character that isn't really established very clearly) that doesn't operate as cleanly, and decides to use its time as a criticism of the inability of several doctors to correctly diagnose his cancer; weird choice. Still, Caro Diario is briskly paced, often carries a solid sense of deadpan, and gives a pleasant look at Italy from the perspective of a lifelong resident, so you can't call it a waste of time. (3/5) See more Emilio T @MilloTPue 09/09/2019 After half and hour, one feels that the movie would be more pleasant if you felt a partner in the philosophy of Moretti (however, he does not explain enough to understand it, and makes more difficult talking about geographical and cultural localisms; probably, it is a movie for already initiated), or if the sense of humour was not so subtle and ironic, in a way it becomes not funny at all. Sometimes it looks exhibicionism pre-YouTube. Probably, it looks more narcisistic because you don't fell Moretti is half as sharp as he believes he is. You can watch it (sometimes, the music and the silence are just peaceful), but not enjoy enough to continue. If I continue watching, there is risk to give just 2 stars. See more 06/13/2019 This film never fails to make me smile. It moves between being sweet and hilarious. The locations are so evocative, and the juxtaposing cultural references make me laugh out loud: "Flashdance" and The Bold and the Beautiful.
