conannz Every action has consequences. Unintended or otherwise. Just when you don't think it can get any darker someone goes over the edge and commits an act that at first looks like the end of a story. Of course most of the time those acts are just links in a chain of never ending violence and far reaching consequences. The main feeling you get while watching this film is one of being being sucked down by a giant whirlpool of corruption and crime. There is so much rain it looks like a monsoon. That it (the story) ends in a waterlogged courtyard is fitting. For some reason most of the outside scenes of Rome take place in rain at night. Whether that is a metaphor or not it fits the tone. Dark on dark - but then again maybe the water will wash everything away.

kosmasp You know this is structured in the best sense, a familiar sense for people who have seen a couple of crime movies. You know a little bit of how they are structured, you can feel where it is going. And still the suspense is there. Even when you are like "I see, I know", it still delivers the punch with such precision that you don't mind a bit of predictability. Also the quality is of the highest standard.Acting wise and story/script wise that is. We are talking about a very tight story about many characters, connected one way or another. If you judge this morally you may have some issues. It'll be hard to find a likable character in this. But that is not what this movie is about. Since this somehow connected to the people who did Gomorra, the show and I reckon the movie, I'm looking forward to watch that too

antoniotierno A sprawl of beautifully cast characters and their many intersections. Handsomely crafted, redolent of the types of crime thrillers they don't make anymore, though a little bit too glossy. In keeping up with the crotch-grabbing (sometimes literally) masculine milieu that Sollima – working from a novel and screenplay by Italian journalist Carlo Bonino and writer Giancarlo De Cataldo – seeks to depict, the sexual politics are prehistoric. The women, invariably, are wives, high-heeled secretaries, prostitutes, and molls. Their male equivalents are cardinals, big-wigs and bigger deals. Overall a great story superbly acted.

Venom_81 Suburra it's one of the best crime / drama movie of the last year. The story is settled between Rome and the suburbs and it's a web of relations between politics, mafia boss, prostitute, criminals and normal people. But it isn't a movie of gangster or mafia boss , I mean there are a boss and criminals but it's more a movie about how the common people from the richer to the poor interact with the criminality in some ways for their pettiness. Solima is the same director of Gomorrah the series, so the style is pretty much the same..the movie starts with different stories that start to became a dense plot with a common story. I don't want to spoiler too much about the story and the character because I think it's a must watch movie. Bytheway the cast is great and works very well, the direction it's sublime and some shots and cinematography are really greats. It's definitely not suitable for children since some sex act and nudity, drug use and violence. The soundtrack is done by french M83. If you liked Gomorrah the series you have to watch this movie.
