Audience Member really enjoyed this movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Don't worry, it's not a movie about Inter's football followers... In this Italian movie Carlo is the main character and he is one of those guys who just hate to give money for "African children" and always manages to run away from it... a little bit against all the "blacks" in Italy... until one day he meets Nadine... bosses wife! I won't give you too much of the story, but I'll say it is wonderful presentation of the everyday Italians views of the racial issue and everyday life in today's Italy. Fabio Volo was the right choice because of the looks but acting wise he owes us a lot! If he didn't have Ambra Angiolini next to him there could be a huge gap in the acting department which was closed with the help of another actor - Eriq Ebouaney. Director Cristina Comencini managed to earn around 3 million pounds in 6 weeks which are very high earnings for an Italian film. It is a movie for middle age men and women and probably will make them think what life is about... It had more potential but delivery was poor! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Haven't seen it yet, but it looks very interesting. Will see if I can rent it first. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Nice comedy, italian comedy about immigration, integration of different cultures in italy, about love and adultery. 3 stars because they touched this theme and in Italy it seems to be Tabù. We sould all pass this limit and start working to live together and respect each other. In italy there is a kinda silenced agreement on all this. So, good job to Comencini C. to make it explicit. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Storia tutta italiana su razzismo ed integrazione, calata in un gioco delle coppie. Simpatico ma non tra le migliori interpretazioni di Volo. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member I think there are too many clichés in this film...
