Great Sequel Does Not Quite Match Original But It Is Fun!
21 September 2022
Enzo Barboni directed TRINITY IS STILL MY NAME, the sequel to THEY CALL ME TRINITY, and he scored another comic and commercial success, albeit not nearly as good as the original.

Still, the opening sequence where baddies have the misfortune to meet the half-brothers Trinity and Bambino, is truly memorable, as is the sequence in a restaurant where the French-speaking waiter makes the mistake of suggesting crepes suzette to the impeccably dressed duo, who otherwise just eat like savages and somehow find themselves helping a Catholic community, even playing American Football/Rugby with the loot.

Spencer in particularly effective head-stamping form, must have caused quite a few headaches to the stunt men. Hill and Spencer function like Stan and Ollie, only more crudely - but that does not detract from their capacity to keep you interested in their shenanigans!

Somewhat overlong and lacking the fabulous song theme of the original, TRINITY IS STILL MY NAME is good enough to deserve watching and rewatching a couple of times (at least!)
