Short Review

Atypical road movie. Just as the protagonist, also the movie is a rollercoaster of intense moments and ridicolous situations. At times it's engaging and profound, but often on the verge of turning into a farce. The shift from the small villages and natural views of Sicily to the frantic and urban skylines of US cities is a strong start, which the rest of the movie doens't keep up to.
