Federico Fellini's first film, a charming caper that follows a pair of tormented honeymooners through their slapstick adventures in Rome, has put to rest my ungrounded fear of Fellini.

Probably shouldn’t be your first stop into the wonderfully weird world of Fellini, but his fans should absolutely find something to savour in this enjoyable little farce.

Fellini would make much better films but this isn't a bad debut.
01/13/04
A funny, sardonic, and clever satire on popular heroes and ordinary people's illusions.
07/31/07
Warm Flaubertian satire

a delightful comedy that demonstrates Fellini’s talent of directing exaggerated actors in madcap scenarios
04/28/03
Such as in La Strada and Nights of Cabiria, in The White Sheik Fellini acknowledges his neo-realist foundation, and displays a capacity for fantasy.
05/08/03
Clever lighthearted spoof on movie stars.
12/22/06
Fellini's most purely pleasurable movie.
08/04/03
Not one of Fellini's masterworks (and uncharacteristically farcical), but it is a must-see for those interested in the director's oeuvre and an entertaining piece on its own.
