Very Cool!!!

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

"Lookin' Italian" opens with nocturnal panoramic shots of New York, and then has a brief but decent shootout. After that, it is devoid of interest apart maybe from Matt LeBlanc's impressive biceps (he also has extended shirtless scenes). After this role, he wisely decided to steer clear of this kind of overwrought drama - his talents are elsewhere. The portrayal of Italian Mafia is so cliched that you could wrap it up in spaghetti. * out of 4.

I coulda gotten six high school kids to direct and shoot and act this ... thing and you wouldn't have noticed any drop off in quality. Trust me. It's that bad.What's bad? The plot, the characters, the lines, the acting, the action, the camera-work, etc., and the stupidity of it all. 60 seconds into this movie, you already know that you're looking at a DB; and 80 dull minutes later, it's just a stiffer DB. How's that? How bad is it? On a scale of 1 to 10? This one gets a minus 12.Forget harsh interrogation techniques. Just threaten any terrorists or suspects with this movie, and they'll tell you everything. I guarantee it.

Very very bad. A list of bad things: - The story - The acting - The FilmThis film contains probably one of the worst efforts of acting that i have ever seen from Matt LeBlanc. I don't consider him to be a great actor anyway, but his performance in Lookin' Italian can only be described as generic.The story idea is nothing particularly inventive, a tale of discovery of ones origins and coming to terms with it. While this might work in a film with some cinematographic flair, Lookin' Italian fails to make it the least bit interesting. Couple this with the predictable plot "twists" and you end up with a film that quickly becomes a waste of precious electricity.

If you took this movie and edited it down to 15 mins you would have a parody that would not look out of place in something like the Kentucky Fried Movie. As it is the over acting, shoddy direction and awful script just add up to another wasted hour and a half.
