Movie Reviews
Reviews:
"Saviano returns to the theme of the contemporary Camorra in the novel-to-film PIRANHAS." - 02/12/2019 Hollywood Reporter
"The locations teem with the real life of the city, and the cast is made up of local kids and non-professionals from the area who innately understand its invisible demarcations and hierarchies." - 02/12/2019 Variety
"PIRANHAS sports a streetwise familiarity with Neapolitan neighborhoods: we travel through the narrow, busy streets alongside the nascent hoodlums on their scooters, catching glimpses of life controlled by lower-m mafiosi." - 08/02/2019 RogerEbert.com
3 stars out of 4 -- "PIRANHAS is no documentary, but it plays out with a deadpan style that is deeply unsettling." - 08/06/2019 Washington Post
