This movie reminded me of other Tornatore's movies as "Nuovo Cinema Paradiso" and "Malena" because of its setting in Sicily and because of one of the director's landmarks like reminiscing childhood with all its main events and characters. I would say that it's a good movie because it portrays well Sicily, with its breath-taking landscapes and with its characters that properly express the temper of Sicilian people. However, compared to other of his movies, especially the aforementioned "Nuovo Cinema Paradiso", Tornatore doesn't add anything to his picture of Sicilian culture, he rather delivers a lower quality plot compared to other of his movies. Plus, the movie is in some parts boring and too long.
