The unlikely gang of unwitting, time-travelling criminals is back in action, following Non ci resta che il crimine (2019) and Ritorno al crimine (2021), directed by Massimiliano Bruno. Their goal in this third film is to return to 1943, to the days preceding 8 September, and steal Leonardo da Vinci’s most famous painting, the Mona Lisa, from the French. In their travels they meet famous characters and stumble into real historical events in an Italy overwhelmed by WWII.
By the end of the fast animated opening sequences, over the film titles, the gang has already stolen the Mona Lisaand is now by the aqueduct of ancient Monterano. Everything seems to be going well, the three prepare to return to the present-day with their haul. The time-travel portal is located in Camogli, however it will not be simple to travel through Italy in the chaotic aftermath of the armistice, amidst Nazis, Fascists and partisan fighters (“they haven’t built the A1 motorway yet!”).
The Fascist party headquarters where Moreno (Marco Giallini) and Claudio (Giampaolo Morelli) are taken after blowing up a bridge on the orders of Sandro Pertini (Rolando Ravello) and his group of partisans is Villa D’Antoni Varano, in via Barengo 182, northwest of Rome.

As the story unfolds, the band’s priority is to help Adele (Carolina Crescentini) rescue her daughter, Monica, the child who will become Moreno’s mother, from a Nazi ship travelling to Naples. On a beach in Bacoli, near the Marina Grande dock, Claudio improvises a conversation in pure Neapolitan dialect to find out if the ship has docked: the headquarters of the Nazi army in Naples is actually the Castle of Santa Severa, in the Macchiatonda Nature Reserve, on the Lazio coastline north of Rome.

Cuando Kingdom of Heaven (conocida en España como El Reino de los Cielos o Cruzada ) se estrenó en cines en 2005, la respuesta fue tibia. Ridley Scott, conocido por Gladiator y Blade Runner , entregó una película que, aunque visualmente impactante, parecía fragmentada, apresurada y con motivaciones de personajes poco claras. Muchos críticos y espectadores sintieron que la trama saltaba de una escena de batalla a otra sin dejar respirar a la historia.
Presionado por los ejecutivos de 20th Century Fox, quienes temían que una película de más de tres horas espantara al público general, Ridley Scott se vio obligado a recortar casi 50 minutos de metraje. El resultado fue una película de acción medieval deslavazada, con lagunas argumentales masivas, motivaciones de personajes incomprensibles y un ritmo apresurado que diluía el trasfondo político y religioso de las Cruzadas. La versión extendida o Director's Cut (194 minutos)
: Disponible bajo el título El Reino de los Cielos , aunque generalmente es la versión de cines.
Kingdom of Heaven: Director's Cut es el ejemplo perfecto de cómo un montaje puede salvar una película. Si te gusta el cine de Ridley Scott o las grandes historias de la Edad Media, la versión extendida en castellano es, sencillamente, obligatoria. Es una reflexión profunda sobre la fe, el honor y la posibilidad de paz en un mundo dividido por la religión.
