Reviews
The Rhine - Newspaper writes: timeless Italian style - with a slight '50s flair - resonates through the film. Afternoon sun painted on the dilapidated houses and in the narrow streets of the mountain village of warm golden color games: The film is not only because of the immense charisma of its main characters a pleasure - because of the good friendly relations between Reno and Ruehl, in the even as a mini skirt girlfriend " the Fisher King " charmed, also benefits their screen marriage.
Prism online: The British "Mr. Bean "director Paul Weiland managed a wonderful Italian village comedy in which he replaced with a wink between love and romance black crime grotesque. Jean Reno plays the main role of the melancholy dreamer and everyday heroes with sensitive integrity.
