This amusing , engaging movie is crammed of fist-fights , punches ,
kicks , moving stunt-work , colorful African outdoors and lots of humor
. The picture is realized in similar style to ¨Africa Express¨ and
¨Safari Express¨ by Duccio Tessari with Giuliano Gemma . Terence Hill
is top-notch as sympathetic freewheeling trader of goods with a dream ,
to save enough money ; and Bud Spencer is enjoyable in charge of a
curious tourism agency ; meanwhile , both of whom taking on a group of
smugglers . The lighting-paced storyline slows down at times , but
frenetic fight-sequences and fun make up for it , besides includes a
chimp getting into mischief , pranks and antics . It's an entertaining
romp plenty of brawls , including amusing bounds and leaps .
This is a
nice and funny juvenile story for Hill and Spencer fans , as they are
delightful and likable . It packs action, fist-play, slapdash, humor
with tongue-in-cheek and is quite bemusing . This release has some cool
and several hilarious moments , adding wonderful African landscapes .
The film isn't always good , sometimes is fresh and diverting and on a
couple of memorable occasions , it's frankly delicious. The movie
displays innumerable laughters , jokes and slapstick . Catching and
commercial musical score with marvelous leitmotif by Rizzati in Guido
and Maurizio De Angelis style , including some beautiful songs , the
first of them sung by Bud Spencer .
The motion picture picture is
compellingly directed by Italo Zingarelli who produced the
Hill-Spencer's greatest hits as ¨They call me Trinity¨ , ¨Trinity is
still my name¨ and other Spaghetti as ¨The five man army¨, ¨Johnny
Yuma¨ and Peplum as ¨¨The seven Spartans¨, ¨The invincible gladiator ¨,
¨The secret seven¨ , ¨Ursus¨, and several others . This is a passable
entertaining juvenile that will appeal to Italian comedy buffs. Rating
: Acceptable and passable but only for Hill and Spencer fans.
Here's the movie for your connoisseur guilty pleasure:
