Reviews
- Prism Online: Even if the lexicon of international film says that this is a " loveless staged Celentano - comedy, angered by silly synchronous sayings and exaggerated chauvinism that," can contrast to that anyway there are no justified chauvinism and that the film exactly this on takes the mickey. Also, this is a refreshing variation of Shakespeare's "The Taming of the Shrew ".
