    A super Italian movie

    One of the best comedies i have ever seen. I laughed and smiled from the start to the end.

    The most authentic laugh I had in a long time

    The movie is a true comedy. Its only drawback is its very limited audience. It's a movie made for Italians and Greeks. Germans, North Europeans and others should not waste their time on this. They will not be able to conceive the majesty of it. They are also kindly requested not to ruin the overall rating of this masterpiece with their votes. :-) Thank you.

    An entertaining romp through European and world stereotypes

    The negative reviewers are taking this a whole lot too seriously. I watched this on the plane a few days ago and it made me laugh out loud - not easy in those circumstances. It's not subtle, nor full of elegant wit, but it is funny. It's not exactly Fellini (who, strangely, made a similar film with Marcello Mastroianni, if I remember correctly). Anyone who's spent time in these countries, and I have, knows there's a grain of truth in these stereotypes. Italians are impatient drivers, Norwegians do like to bathe naked in the snow. Etc. As for the Mafia...that no longer exists, so we are told. Except that trials of so called gangsters have been going on for years now, but witnesses keep disappearing (check the news on google). So that particular stereotype might just be accurate. I have an Italian friend who took me to visit his relatives near Naples. One of the relatives was a civil engineer who had built a road that bypassed a particular village. That road was used exclusively for his friends and relatives for some years before it became a public highway. That is true from my own experience, so all the reviewers on here who say the stereotypes are just that...well, no. Anyway, if you are too earnest to enjoy this film, stick to something more philosophically challenging.

    undeserved success

    The movie has been acclaimed for having underlined some sad aspects of the Italian economical and political world, using a comical facade. It is a sort of walk through different Italian regions, characterized by common stereotypes.

    I found this movie enough boring and repetitive, and lacking of real comical elements that could last in my mind and let me laugh again and again. The storyline is very flat and expected.

    Script and direction are poor, such as the performance of many actors. Maybe the only positive element are the songs, written by Zalone himself, that can sound funny and well-suiting the context.

    This could be a good movie to watch with your family to have some laughs. It is nothing more than this and I will never be tired of repeating his success in Italy is undeserved and justified only by an efficient promotional system.
