 The chilling silence that covered and enveloped the cinema hall for the entire duration of the film makes me think I wasn’t the only one with this impression.

 From Pupi Avati, I didn’t expect such a mediocre and negligible work.

The slow pace, lack of strong ideas, and mediocre screenplay lead to an indifferent audience reaction. Despite a competent cast, the film struggles with bland dialogues and a poorly connected plot. Ultimately, the film feels like a disappointing and forgettable comedy set in 1950s Bologna. Read the full review and decide if Pupi Avati's latest comedy is worth your time or a miss.
