Finally got around to watching it. I liked it a lot, great acting and directing. Despite the artistic licenses, it does a great work showing how chaotic and bizarre postwar Italy was, and how fascism came to be.

Might actually watch this. Wouldn't mind learning a bit more about him.
Sky Italy have done some kino. Gomorrah and ZeroZeroZero were absolutely brilliant.>>

decent digits.
Watched first 2 episodes. Overall positive. It's so close to hitting 9/10 territory and absolute greatness in parts, but something just holds it back.
The style took a while to get use to. The beginning left me a little confused with the constant cutting around. End of episode 1 was absolutely kino though. Had me hooked.
Beginning of episode 2 with the prison sequence was hillarious. I don't know enough about Mussolini to know whether he was as a bumbling fool as this in life or not, or whether the media can't be too based.
I love the music. One of the Chemical Brothers I think I saw. Didn't the Mussolini era herlad an Art Deco Futuristic architectural period in Italy? Some of the cool angles and shots with the electronic 'jagged' music are leading me to believe the style of what we see is Mussolini inviting him into his world and his vision of the future....
All in all, it's just interesting.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I'm learning and thinking a lot.
