Good start, but then it gets ruined
Good concept, poorly executed.
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

View MoreOne of my most favorite Adriano Celentano movies. Saw that movies in my early teens and now, 12 Years later I still love them! (Other than Bud-Spencer-movies I favored at the same age...)Traveling from New York to Italia, pretty Mary rushes into moody macho lawyer Tito. As in any Adriano-movie, the girl immediately falls for the guy with the gruffy manners and in an very impertinent way, she leans on him as she gets in trouble: Not only that she gets tied up in her suite by some Gangsters, but also, her new husband is found dead. Together with Tito (whom she obviously prefers a lot to the deceased) and with a secret map, the hunted one searches for her dead husband's fortune...Quite surprising, partly unbelievable plot elements and cool phrases in an odd slang make it a really fun to watch, even if a few people might consider it dull. Adriano plays with many women's secret liking for macho-men and is charming as ever in his own, special way.
