Nawt W @RT94004908 Dec 30, 2023 It became readily apparent that the intended age of the character does not actually match the actor's; hence, you're forced to wrestle with the constant discontent of why this almost 14-year-old kid treats another kid in a life-threatening situation with the reverence of a cool beetle that he found.

dave s @RT68722908 Jun 18, 2021 I suppose that it's difficult to say what you would do if you were a ten-year-old boy who stumbled across another young boy held captive by chains in a deep hole until you actually come across a young boy held captive by chains in a deep hole, but common sense would indicate that you might want to run it by your parents. Despite this leap of logic, the coming-of-age film I'm Not Scared is a fascinating mash up of genres and, despite its methodical pace, should hold the attention of most viewers for the duration. The acting by all of the kids is fantastic, the score is excellent and the cinematography is breathtaking throughout. See more

Emilio T @MilloTPue May 1, 2020 Between 3 and 3.5 stars. Good movie in which we see, from the eyes of a child, a very hard situation. It reaches a good equilibrium between raelity and the magic realism environment it creates in some moments. See more

Apr 15, 2019 Neat Italian mystery/thriller told mostly from the children's perspective. See more

Oct 24, 2016 In "I'm Not Scared" a young Italian boy stumbles across a kidnap victim who has been chained up and concealed in a pit. They slowly form a friendship and gradually the boy uncovers the identity of the gang members who are behind the crime. An interesting enough plot but I didn't feel that there were enough scares and some opportunities to ramp up the tension in the plot were completely wasted. The kidnap victim, a little boy of about 10 years, isn't particularly likeable and the way he behaves seems to me to be quite bizarre. Where this could have actually been a taught thriller or a story of the loss of childhood innocence, I actually found "I'm Not Scared" to be pedestrian and safe. See more
