The general air of quiet intelligence throws the occasional outbursts of loud emotion into affecting relief, and John Turturro shines as the sort of unintentionally difficult star he doesn't seem like he'd be in real life. September 9, 2016 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Moretti knows how to orchestrate a good laugh when it's needed, but he can plumb more soulful, sorrowful depths, too. September 2, 2016 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

This is a movie that doesn't quite come together, on both thematic and tonal levels, even though most individual scenes are competently acted and engaging. September 1, 2016 | Full Review…

It all feels fragmented, making certain sequences-like one where Margherita purposely smashes her mom's car after catching her driving-feel baffling or out of place. May 30, 2019 | Full Review…

This delicate human drama is constantly interrupted by the altogether ordinary and often unfunny satire on making a film. April 6, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Mia Madre invokes shades of Fellini's 8 1/2 with tale of a creator dealing with an existential crisis and is only amplified by some of the film's many dream sequences. November 1, 2018 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

Margherita Buy is terrific in the lead, possessing a face one never tires of watching in close up, and Turturro delivers a wickedly funny portrait of an actor who cannot get enough of himself. August 23, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
