This is NOT a gangster movie

Rating: 10/10 (28 December 2019)

This is NOT a gangster movie. This movie is about love, friendship, childhood, nostalgia, loyalty and betrayal, and about how good or bad decisions determine our success or failure in love/life. And YES, all this in the context of a group of friends and Gangsters of the 20/30's.
Hence, it can't be compared with classic gangster films such as the Godfather or Goodfellas. It won't have the same amount of action of such movies, because OUATIA is not about that. The Gangster mood is just an attrezzo used to explain a really sad story (the life of the protagonist), full of good memories and success, but with an unfortunate -and too early- ending.
For those rating 1 and 2..., they were probably looking for a typical gangster movie, with plenty of shots, blood, gangs fighting, etc, etc, and they probably didn't realize that the movie is not about that. Otherwise they're just offended haters and depraved after seeing some female nudity.
If only looking at the graphic aspects, the film is a masterpiece. Every each frame is meticulously and thoroughly thought. The deliberate extremely slow pace of the entire movie is needed to transmit all the passion and drama. For this reason, this movie requires to be watched with the same tranquil and relaxed mood, and with all five senses put on the movie, in order to catch every detail.
Of course, get the director's cut. Because the commercial was an atrocity.
