Tony is well-to-do and married. He owns a little villa on the Sicilian coast which he occasionally uses for liaisons with his mistress Margherita. He's involved with her in one or two other little projects, as well. One day, he arrives at the villa for an evening of pleasure and encounters a scruffy young thief as he tosses the joint for money and salable items. He brains him with some crockery, and then he and his girlfriend patch up the boy's wounds and send him off with some money. The thief tells his story to his pals, and they tell him that there's more money to be made from that duo. He begins by blackmailing them separately but falls in love with Margherita and seeks Tony's help in going straight so he can woo her. Unfortunately for him, he faces a number of obstacles, one of which is insurmountable. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide

This comedy-drama explores the sexual misadventures of a variety of suburban dwellers, including a few straying husbands and wives, and some non-husbands and non-wives too. After Sandro (Christian De Sica) and Lorenzo (Massimo Boldi) pack their wives and kids off for a brief vacation, the two men decide to look for some close encounters of the sexual kind. Sandro goes on several dates while Lorenzo takes up with his less-than-stable secretary, which proves to be a big mistake. Meanwhile, Gianluca (Jerry Cala) is an ambitious advertising executive who has little knack for communicating with the woman he loves. Finally, a car salesman (Enzo Greggio) chases anyone in skirts, full throttle, but gets a surprise in a few instances. None of these stories tends to overlap with the others. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

Athina Cenci stars in a double role in this gag-filled comedy about the lives of shallow Italian yuppies who live the high-life -- golfing, playing polo and driving around in their Ferraris. Lorenzo (Massimo Baldo) is a harried husband who is thrown out by his wife (Cenci). Lorenzo goes further into the doghouse when he mistakes Athina's sister the nun for his wife. ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide

Viewers should be warned off this failed attempt at farce by its title alone. The film makes just about as much sense. Scripted, directed, and edited by Adriano Celentano a total of $10,000,000 was spent to poke almost violent "fun" at Christ's Second Coming. Joan Lui (Christ, played by Celentano), dressed in a hippie-style band and rimless glasses rides a 19th-century train filled with obviously hostile blacks. He gets off at a rural station and suddenly crosses over into a future world at war. Helicopters fly overhead, cars crash into each other, kidnappings occur and all the while Joan Lui is hanging out with the locals, talking. Episodes "condemning" hedonism or hypocrisy continue from there, but many segments are sure to be unconvincing and unfunny to some viewers at least. Song-and-dance numbers add to the confusion, and only a miracle of re-editing could save this film. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

The popular Italian comic Adriano Celentano stars in this light comedy as Mattia, a wealthy novelist besieged by female admirers who recruits the aid of his young neighbor to discourage any women from proposing marriage as a logical outcome of their affections. Federica Moro plays Michela, feigning to be Mattia's daughter when she is introduced to the altar-prone women and always finding the necessary "faults" to end their relationship. The Celentano comedy technique is one of exaggeration, or role reversal -- as when he is rejected by the parents of an African woman he is chasing because they do not like whites, so he spends a fortune on sun tan oil trying to get his skin dark. Women stare at him as he walks down the street, they pinch him, or distracted, they run their cars into telephone poles -- a great take-off on male behavior patterns. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide
