5 Is the Perfect Number (Italian: 5 è il numero perfetto) is a 2019 Italian thriller drama film directed by Igort, based on his 2002 homonymous graphic novel,[1] starring Toni Servillo and Valeria Golino.
The film was released in Italy on 29 August 2019[2] and presented at the Venice Days of the 76th Venice Film Festival.[3]
In 1970s Naples, the retired camorrist Peppino Lo Cicero decides to return to action after the murder of his son Nino. Imagining that his son's death was caused by a betrayal, Peppino tries to hire four fellow hitmen in order to plan and execute his revenge.
The film has been described as visually and stylistically appealing, yet not emotionally compelling by The Hollywood Reporter.[4]
