      are those guys for real?

      Who would ever think that Vouros and Petroheilos would be playing the role of......the punkies... Lezes is absolutely funny, Konstantinou makes you die laughing. But the coolest scene was the scene of a game of "chicken" between a tricycle and a Chessna plane, on the runway of the former Schinias airfield (now turned into the Olympic row-boat center). Or even the fat bodyguard who gets beat up all the time. "Today I'll work overtime"he quotes when his employer sends him to be pounded by a bunch of angry men for the second time in the day. Those lovable losers, end up doing the right thing , in the end....... and please the fat lady....all she has to say? "xeliiiiiiii"! Pleasant times during the Greek eighties

      A classic gang film

      This is definitely one of the most surreal cinematic experiences I have ever had. The characters are so one dimensional it's actually contributing to the cheap humour of the film. I would like to pay my respect to the excellent comic actor Markos Lezes, who in this film, outdoes himself for sheer quality of performance and humour of the English style. Excellent.
