There is an element of emollient sentimentality, especially in the way the plot lines are neatly tied up, but a good deal of storytelling gusto and ingenuity...
Full reviewAdapted from Eshkol Nevo’s novel of the same name, this Italian melodrama from award-winning director Nanni Moretti (The Son's Room, Habemus Papam) charts over several years the interconnected lives of the residents of an apartment block in Rome. Capturing their emotional travails at five-year intervals, Moretti weaves together stories of love, loyalty, loss and loneliness.

Full reviewA convoluted melodrama that is heavy on plot and light on humour, personality… and good acting.
Full reviewIt’s all mildly involving, in a soapy way, and there are performances and moments to enjoy (and then to miss when they're under-developed)...
Full reviewDubious sexual politics make us wonder if Moretti is out of time, or just needs better material.
Full reviewThree Floors is not a bad melodrama per se, but has none of the needle-sharp emotional intensity of The Son’s Room.
Full reviewFor those looking for a film that attempts new narrative or technical adventures, (this is) a disappointment.
Full reviewThree Floors is now playing in 3 cinemas in New Zealand.
