Ex: Todos tenemos uno

Don't give up your lover because of momentary anger, self-esteem and cold war, maybe you only know if you missed it once. The natural romance of the Italian makes the old plots cute, and the background music is wonderful.

Just saw this movie Saturday night at an Italian film festival. It came out in Feb. 2009 and was nominated for and won several awards. There are numerous interwoven stories, with a talented cast of veteran actors who are perfectly chosen for their parts. Filled with episodes of both roll-on-the-floor hilarity and tears-in-the-eyes poignancy. Best movie of any kind, in any language, that we've seen in the last couple of years. If only it were easier to rent (from Netflix, Blockbuster, etc.) or in general distribution in U.S. theaters! The only way to get a copy that I can find is on Amazon--at $30+ for Region 2 (Europe) DVD! The soundtrack is terrific, too. All in all, a perfectly put together movie. Not sure why the 312 IMDb.com ratings thus far average only 6.3...

Good jokes and comical situations as in other Fausto Brizzi's movies. However, in my opinion it's still an average movie because it never gets to high quality comedy moments. The plot is developed through various couples that have a hard time staying together and with their relatives who are involved in their daily troubles. During the movie the stories of the couples mix with each other making the relations among them even more complicated. Besides the comic and slightly dramatic parts of the movie, there's also a romantic side of it which emerges mainly at the end of it. As for the actors I liked Silvio Orlando who fitted in well in his role and who has a natural comic side of his looks and personality.

a romantic comedy. different by many others. for the Italian scent, for the humor mixed with rears, for the large categories of themes, for music and for the links between stories. a film who has love as axis for many other subjects, each defined with grace and precision. a film about life, options, mistakes and decisions. with a splendid subtle charm and right directions for be a complete show. the choice for romantic puzzles is not original but used in Ex with inspired art. because all is simple. the need of the other, the fight with the past, the discover of truth. and that does it a special film. not great. only the most inspired options for a Sunday evening.
