Movie Info
Comedian Roberto Benigni wrote and directed this Italian farce, in which he stars as Dante, a bus driver who is the exact double of the infamous gangster Johnny Toothpick (Benigni again). After Dante meets Johnny's girlfriend Maria (Nicoletta Braschi), he travels to her Palermo villa, where it quickly becomes apparent that Maria is setting up Dante to take the fall for Johnny's illicit behavior. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi

An enjoyably goofy ganster comedy.
Below average Benigni. Somewhat cute, but Monster is far better.
Amusing, but a far cry from fully utilizing Benigni's comic timing.
