1.5*/5.0*

Two very different people go on a road trip together. Both are rather broad and simple stereotypes, the film doesn't have that much interesting to say, but at least the mood is rather light and the lush settings make for easy watching. That is if you can stand the Italian chattiness of the characters.

Though not the longest film, it could've been a bit shorter, as there's not really happening all that much, besides characters trying to have a good time in sunny Italy. The ending feels rather tacked on and inappropriate, but it wasn't too surprising. There wasn't much for me here, but it's not the worst Italian classic I've seen.
