    Embarrassing. Just embarrassing.

    There is really not that much that can be said about this movie. Wafer-thin when it comes to the plot, it simply is a series of sketches involving a group of paparazzi trying to chase down celebrities.

    The quality of the movie is non existent, and the fact that the vast majority of the alleged "V.I.P."'s (all playing themselves) in the movie have now disappeared is a testament of how useless the whole thing is.

    And the whole thing looks extremely cheap, shot and edited in a very bad way, with an incongruous, random score; something that has sadly become a trademark for director Neri Parenti.

    Bad acting all over the place, and this is nothing new from both Christian De Sica and Massimo Boldi, both recycling old trite gags; but it is frankly embarrassing watching an actor as solid as Diego Abatantuono can be, taking part in this anemic, embarrassing farce.

    Masterpiece

    If you give anything less than a 10 you understand nothing about movies. Not a single scene is wrong or over the top, the characters are so deep and well made, the plot is at times too intricate to follow but the payoff is worth.
