Die unglaubliche Geschichte der Roseninsel

This is a beautiful retrospective of history. The soundtrack is amazing and the shots fits well with the story being told. I learned about a part of history that I didn't know about and that had huge implication for international ocean governance.

This film has great esthetics, probably watchable on that alone, but as a whole is a mess. The narrative is so drawn out, with at least a dozen repetitions of the same joke of incredulity on the part of staid bureaucrats, that about 30 minutes in, you'd be better of stopping viewing.

A really cool concept, especially considering it's based on a true story. I loved the music and the cinematography was well done. However, the storyline was slow and meandered a bit.

This is a beautifully written, acted and directed little gem. It is very funny, sweet, intelligent and light. The design production and photography are particularly beautiful, colourful, a bit surrealist, reminiscent of Fellini's style. Very enjoyable.

Sibilia's first major work after 'Smetto quando voglio' trilogy fails to adopt a different yet needed style for this flick. The film is indeed genuinely entertaining still presumptuous. The relevancy of this historical event was minor at the very least in the Italian politics yet is portrayed as an enourmous occurrency. The historical inaccuracy given to the event is froustrating since the movie tries to rebember to the spectator the truthfulness of the event although in reality the happening was completely different. Besides of this, the film is still enjoyable mainly thanks to Germano's acting and the director's slighty surreal touch.
