Body Guards - Guardie del corpo

Firstable I am italian so I know what italian movies look like. This movie had really badly impressed me cause there are a lot of bad habits used as jokes. There's one scene that I hate more than the others. When the character of Enzo Salvi (I don't remember the name) ends up in a sauna (if I remember right) in which someone has previously put a pack of drugs. The scene is all based on this. For me it looks like that the productors had wanted to make people think that this is the effect of drugs that is in my opinion perfectly wrong... I know you can use any kind of stuff to make people laugh but this is beyond any limits.. That's why I don't like this movie and that's why i hate most of italian movies that are all in the same way... Marco

I'm Spanish and thanks god I speak Italian, so I can enjoy these great comedies from the duo Christian De Sica-Massimo Boldi. This is one of my favorites. The comedy is absolutely absurd & hilarious and the pace is frantic. Cindy Crawford does an extended cameo in the last part of the film, but the main running jokes are very good. It's an slick movie made with a big budget, and I recommend it for all lovers of Italian comedies. Forget about the previous comments. In Italy there are a lot of local movies haters (as in every country in the world) so these opinions are not really very useful. This film made a lot of money in box office. Search for the DVD, and if you don't speak Italian, start learning...if not, nothing will make sense to you...

For me, as an italian, this film was extremely funny and I had a great laugh at the cinema. Ok, it consists of nothing but very simple "italian style" slapstick jokes: a little bit of sex, people who get hurt in cartoon style and of course lots of italian language jokes. I'd say that you have to be italian native speaker in order to always understand what's supposed to be funny. So this is a film for italians or people who like those very simple italian jokes. If you like Paolo Villaggio, Lino Banfi, Renato Pozzetto, Carlo Verdone, etc. - go and see it! All others - forget it, this isn't for you.
