Ustica was a big mystery in the Italian recent history, so the idea to do a movie based on what happened it's at least a good idea. And this maybe it's the better part of the movie. The story moves across the events lived by 3 mains characters that during the movie explains what it supposed to be happened at Ustica. Let's start to analyze the movie. Director work it's weak your are not taken away with the story and as well as storytelling seems a bad TV show of the 90's. No visually nice shot, nothing special on the pathos and storytelling..really seems a bad TV shows. And if you consider the subject, if you don't have any pathos anything that make you stuck on the chair..it's very bad. Editing is quite bad too. Female cast it's also weak with too much overacting or bad interpretations that you don't believe very much. Male cast it's better than female cast, with Tomas Arana (that isn't playing the main character) better of all, also it's character cynical and detached it's the most believable. Costumes and choreography it's good and bring you back to the 80's, it's very believable. What it's really terrible are visual effects..how is possible to produce such a bad quality in this years? A couple of shot's are OK but the rest seems done too in the 90's..some fighter dogfight shots really seems a video game of more than 15 years ago. I know that visually speaking it's challenging to produce nice images on this subject..but really they are really bad done. And what surprise more than all it's that this movie it's nominee for best visual effects for David's Donatello award...how it's possible? So in the end you can watch this movie for the idea to watch something about one of the biggest mystery on the Italian's recent years but after that it's a really bad movie that seems done in any aspect at least 20 years ago.
