Malena Ratings & Reviews
- arturghazaryan5329 May 2025Best movie I have ever seen
- Muhammad Salman11 January 2026"Casting: Adolfo Onorati" Fuck did they need a casting director for bruh...anyone would've cast Monica after reading the script. (The rest of the cast doesn't even matter).
- rajmoonlight10 April 2025An unsettling depiction of a woman perceived through others eyes, particularly the male gaze. This film invites us to pick apart the Madonna and the whore paradigm, and really see Malena.
