Fourth and final collaboration of producer-director Italo Zingarelli and the comedy team Terence Hill and Bud Spencer. Zingarelli had been the producer of the duo's successful "Trinity" movies "My name is Trinity" [My Name Is Trinity] and "Trinity is still my name" [Trinity Is STILL My Name!] as well as "All the Way Boys" [All the Way Boys]. "Im for the Hippopotamus" was the only picture that Zingarelli directed the both of them. Zingarelli also produced Spencer's "Five Man Army" [The Five Man Army] in which he also directed the Italian version. See more »

After the lunch Tom opens a set of cages with lions (and a cheetah) in them. He opens them from right to left. But the 2 cages we see him opening in close-up, still have closed cages with lions in them to their right. See more »
Whilst it is difficult to ascertain which is the greatest Spencer / Hill film - it could arguably be this or He Who Finds A Friend Finds A Treasure - by some distance this is the greatest cinematic performance to date from the legendary Joe Bugner.
Whilst still a heavyweight boxer, and lest we forget a contender for the world title, Bugner somehow managed to find the time to perform in films such as this. Does he make the the transition with success? Oh yes, certainly. It turns out that Bugner is an exceptional actor; what a shame his talents have not been used in too many other films.
Fans of Spencer and Hill will no doubt have seen this film already, but for anyone out there looking for more Joe Bugner than they have already seen then this is the film for you.
