I viaggiatori

A group of youngsters activate some futuristic looking technology, which transports them back in time, back to a Rome 1939, ahead of the start of the second world war.

It's an Italian film, I watched it with subtitles, it represents a very interesting time in Italy's history.

It's not the most original story, it's been done many times over, but it is always an interesting concept, seeing people from the present day transported back in time. You see Gen Z have to deal with the mindsets of the time, the fascists and general ideas of everyday people, it made for some interesting moments, but I found the coming of age elements a little cheesy.

The sets are pretty good, the visuals are perhaps the best aspect of the film, some pretty good special effects too. That scene where the time machine sprang to life looked great.

The acting was good, strong performances all round.

If you like time travel stories, you may enjoy it.

6/10.
