Suburra Reviews
“A stylish crime thriller that dissects Italian society with a cool eye and an itchy trigger finger.” – Empire Magazine
“Evoking the spirit of 1970s crime maestro Fernando Di Leo, Sollima's sense of pace and place is impeccable, while the performances seethe with decadence, danger and despair.” – Radio Times
“Stefano Sollima's brutal crime thriller exploring corruption and violence among mafia clans, politicians and even the church in Rome is undeniably vicious and uncompromising. But it's a beautifully elegant, taut piece of storytelling.” – The Arts Desk
