Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Played in a manic, volcanic manner by Castellitto, Giancarlo is a constant source of humor and embarrassment.
– Rene Rodriguez,

fresh:
Though Caterina is unusually well-acted and crafted for this kind of movie ... Giancarlo is the one character who makes the movie special.
– Michael Wilmington,
Chicago Tribune,

fresh:
It's an adolescent-to-adult drama that never veers into maudlin or sugary territory. There's a realness on screen that translates to any culture.
– Mario Tarradell,

fresh:
Caterina in the City is a coming-of-age story, of course, but its adult characters are also well rendered.
