User Reviews

A little better, Mr. Verdone

With this film producer Aurelio de Laurentiis intended to do something similar to the Italian comedy classic "In viaggio con papà" (1982): put together a well known, veteran actor (in that case Alberto Sordi, in this one Verdone)and a young, promising one (in the first one Verdone himself, in this one Silvio Muccino, brother of director Gabriele), to appeal to two different generations. Even if the film is going strong at Italian box office the operation is only partly successful. Verdone stars, directs and is also author of the script. The plot is a bit messy, as the film starts as a slapstick comedy with some touch of family drama and suddenly turns to road movie. The script is average, not particularly clever nor as hilarious as Verdone's first movies, but with some funny, good lines. As for the acting performances, Verdone's is top notch, showing what a truly great actor he is, while Muccino has much to learn, and even if he has a nice screen presence, in some dramatic scenes he's still inadequate. On the whole the film is pleasant, with a good, heartwarming ending; it's not an unforgettable classic, but still better than Verdone's latest, bad films, like "Ma che colpa abbiamo noi" and "L'amore è eterno finchè dura". My rating is: 6.5/10
