reception
Dirk Schümer from Welt Online says that Paolo Sorrentino did not make a politically active cinema, but wants to write a lot more history, and Italy's contemporary history is now closely interwoven with the business, dreams, processes, sex fantasies of the agile construction and media entrepreneur Silvio Berlusconi , and no other country could offer such a story. Sorrentino is the first filmmaker to have grasped the immense optical potential of this life between power and sex, politics and business, and to exploit it, continues Schümer.
Lars-Olav Beier criticizes in Der Spiegel “Instead of venturing into the depths, the film goes into breadth and leaves a feeling of emptiness. [..]. Sorrentino has fallen victim to the decadence that he repeatedly shows in his films this time. "
Tim Lindemann from epd Film notes that the biggest mistakes in the film are: "Plots run into void, characters suddenly disappear." In addition, the lurid drug and party scenes are unable to hide the inconsequential dialogues, so Lindemann says, so it remains completely unclear what Loro actually wants to be, accusation, parody or detached consideration. Only one scene, in which Berlusconi visits the victims of the L'Aquila earthquake, manages to capture the fascination emanating from this polarizing personality.
In June 2018, the Sindacato Nazionale Giornalisti Cinematografici Italiani recognized the film in five categories of the Nastro d'Argento , including Paolo Sorrentino and Umberto Contarello for the best screenplay and Luca Bigazzi for the best camera and nominated in three other categories.
