Lasciati andare (2017)

Lasciati andare: Directed by Francesco Amato. With Toni Servillo, Verónica Echegui, Carla Signoris, Luca Marinelli. A psychoanalyst named Elia goes to the gym and meets a personal trainer who changes his life.

“u0026#39;Lasciati Andareu0026#39; (u0026quot;Let Yourself Gou0026quot;) begins excellently, with the reliably brilliant Toni Servillio playing a jaded psychotherapist who takes his wife for granted even though the pair are formally separated. But after a health-scare he reluctantly takes on an excitable personal trainer and various forms of chaos ensue. Unfortunately, as the film continues, these episodes become both more outrageous and more generic – the earlier incidents are funnier because theyu0026#39;re better grounded in the specifics of the character and the situation. Overall, itu0026#39;s mildly amusing rather than hysterical.”
