Editor’s note: Here’s a quick take on Land of the Sons (2021): It leans into its Science Fiction roots without feeling derivative. Claudio Cupellini keeps the storytelling tight, favoring character beats over empty flash. Performances (especially Leon de La Vallée, Paolo Pierobon, Maria Roveran) give the story human stakes. Clocking in at 1h 58m, the pacing is controlled, with room to breathe. Not universally praised, but there’s enough here for curious genre fans. Worth a watch for the craft alone, even beyond the genre appeal.
