Altrimenti ci arrabbiamo

If you've seen and loved the original with Bud Spencer and Terence Hill, you will not miss anything if you skip this.

However, if you consider that this is not exactly a remake but a strange and mostly unnecessary sequel to the original, with the heroes closely related to the original Ben & Kid, it's kinda watchable on a boring Sunday afternoon.

It does feel like a glitch in the Matrix, with events and history mostly repeating themselves, though not exactly. It's way less funny than the original, but if you don't go into it hating it outright, it may even make you smile here and there. It does pay tribute to the original, and tries to respect it. And it shows that the leads do respect Bud and Terence, and know that they're facing an impossible task trying to live up to them.

Anyway, one thing is sure: watching this will make you want to watch the original ASAP. Even if you haven't seen that. Why? Because you'll wonder why that one gets all the praise. You'll have to see it for yourself. For the first time... or for the thousandth.

As in Lightning whatever his name was in Cars - this is about ... Dune Buggy ... no pun intended. And you may have heard the song - you will have seen the original movie for sure then. If you haven't ... maybe you won't be too disappointed ... but you should watch the original if you haven't.

The new actors in this - well those replacing Bud Spencer and Terence Hill (sorry if you know their real names, that's how I grew up with them) ... I feel sorry for them in a sense. It is not an easy task to fill those shoes (and fists - in fights that is)! And that was quite an understatement - I can't imagine anyone having seen the original movie and being a fan of the duo, remotely thinking that those two come close to the OG duo ... no pun intended.

That said, if you are interested, there are some positives I reckon. The race (early on) is quite well shot. Obviously with better cameras/equipment it also was easier to do nowadays, right? You also have an interesting and rather well shot "fight" highlight towards the end. Not sure about the drawn "pictures" in between ... and they also use the original song Dune Buggy - though not as much and often as the original did. Now that may be a good or bad thing - I won't judge either way (love the song of course).

Ending is quite nice and I reckon in tune with the original movies tone ... but apart from being predictable ... it's not like you will jump and cheer from your chair when you see it ... again .. a very tough movie and maybe one that should not have been done in the first place. Or maybe only when the right actors are around. No offense to the two used - pretty sure they are nice people and good actors in their own right. But I've only seen one person I could see "replace" Bud Spencer for example ... his name (international again) is: Don Lee! Watch his Round Up trilogy to get some of that feeling back .. and I've heard there will be at least a fourth one ... can't wait!

Please remove this movie from the digital archives all over the world, delete any downloaded streaming files from your cache and any copy on hard-disks, forget the actors, trash it to the end, skip the trailer or even any frame on google images... and save and keep with heart the good memory of Bud Spencer and Terence Hill, love you guys you are still alive and acting together in our minds.

At first I didn't even know, remake exists until it came to Netflix few days ago. As I am a big fan of legendary Spencer Hill duo, I was utterly shocked, what they did out of legendary original from 1974. Movie wants to be tribute to original, instead it became embarasement. There are no funny actors in this new movie, nu actualy funny scenes and idea recreating original scenes with original look-a-like supporting actors resulted in big fail. Story is the same as original, but new movie does not forget to remember us that with quasi reaperance of Ben and Kid (Spencer and Hill) at the beginning, not just in comic intro, but in movie itself.

The only bright point of that monstrum is Christian de Seca, who is a way bigger actor than whole movie itself and here his presence although flawless can't save anything of this unfortunate movie. Some things are better to stay unique, for shure and don't need tribute remakes.

If you are a fan of Bud Spencer & Terence Hill, you might have found this movie. (i did). Only reason to watch it, was because of the reference to the 1974 movie.

The movie starts with a reference of the original one, telling the story of the buggies and what happened at the end.

This is a big problem, because you would expect the same kind of humor, action and goofiness. Instead, you'll get the same bland type of movies you get by the bucket today.

I might be biased, sure. I loved the original. This one however, was so boring i just forgot about the movie right after watching.

Your mileage may vary, but i can tell you that if you expect this movie to beanything like the original (other than the buggies) , you'll be dissapointed.
