Simply appalling - Destination: Corsica, Sicily and Sardinia review by TB

Spoiler Alert
18/02/2020

The few reviews I have submitted to Cinema Paradiso have been praiseworthy/complimentary about certain films. However on this occasion I simply have to say this documentary was simply plain awful. It came across as a home-movie that friends would be embarrassed to see. One would think that with a title such as this, the film would show as much as possible of the three islands but alas the narrator/presenter (London/Essex stock) just didn't know how to do this and combined with constant editing, which to me gives the feeling of pace which on islands such as these, in my opinion, is the complete opposite to how it should be. Please Cinema Paradiso, REMOVE this from selection!!
