Also known as Simone e Matteo - Un gioco da ragazzi, Simón y Mateo and Kid Stuff, this stars Antonio Cantafora and Paul L. Smith in one of the series of movies they made trying to imitate Terence Hill and Bud Spencer that includes Carambola!, Carambola's Philosophy: In the Right Pocket, We Are No Angels and The Diamond Peddlers.
FVI took it one step further by renaming them in America as Terrance Hall and Bob Spencer. Smith sued, saying The only thing an actor has is his name and if that's taken away, he has nothing." That case was Smith v. Montoro, 648 F.2d 602. Smith alleged that he had acted in the leading role and had a contract granting him star billing. However, when the film was distributed in the U. S. by FVI, his name was stripped from the film. The Ninth Circuit federal court of appeals granted Smith standing to sue the filmmakers, but it is unknown how the case was finally settled. Rumors say that he won.
Toby and Butch (Cantafora and Smith) are dumb criminals moving insecticide from Italy to France but in truth, they don't know that they are smuggling guns. There are also gangsters trying to get the guns but they can't outfight these two.
This was directed by Giuliano Carnimeo (Find A Place to Die, the Sartana films) and written by Sergio Bazzini and Tulio Demicheli. The music - which will repeat throughout and get stuck in your head - is by Guido and Maurizio De Angelis, the men who call themselves Oliver Onions.
