H. L @RT32615912 1 day ago Very funny, Peter Sellers great! See more Mark B @RT67488072 Jul 31, 2025 How could Sellers stoop so low to agree to appear in this garbage? Yet ironically, his ridiculous penchant for silly accents and dressing up in silly clothes only serves him well to fit in with this chaotic nonsense that leaves you cringing at the lame, terrible jokes. Britt Ekland, Seller's real-life Swedish love squeeze, gets in on the act, pretending to be Italian while Victor Mature's mask like face stays pretty much the same throughout the film with his performance so wooden he probably got splinters. It's one of those productions you always regret watching when morning comes around. See more Maryalice E @RT34852080 Aug 31, 2024 BINGOLI!! One of my favorite Peter Sellers movies. I watch it just about every time I see it on my cable listing. Peter Sellers is, of course, perfect as Aldo Venucci. Victor Mature does a wonderful self deprecating performance. Aldo's cohorts reminded me of the fumbling, bumbling mafioso from " The gang who couldn't shoot straight" novel. Also found the soundtrack very engaging. If you are a Sellers fan and haven't seen it yet, give it a look see.

The scenes in Italy were enjoyable, but the screenplay, not so much. See more Aug 25, 2021 The story of the film is The Fox being a master criminal who escapes prison to help smuggle in a shipment of stolen bullion from Egypt to Italy, and his idea is to pretend to make a love story movie in a small Italian coastal village to get the bullion from the ship into the country without arousing suspicion. The Fox has the additional problem of dealing with his neurotic mother and sister, as well as being watched by law enforcement. The theme of the film is to make fun of the movie industry of the era. Peter Sellers shows off the way he can portray so many various characters as he did in his other films; Victor Mature both mocks his macho image and implies that he still has it despite his age. Numerous directors and other movie cliché's are mocked in the movie as well. Much of the movie's material does not age well; few jokes would make a modern audience laugh, unless they were familiar with older stars and movies. Only recommended for the right audience. See more Apr 6, 2021 Most people comment about Sellers and Eckland but the star fot me is the hasbeen movie star. Here Victor Magure plays a part that I wouldn't say mirrors his career but Mature certainly enjoys sending himself up. Mature knew his limitations and certainly threw himself into the part, never classing himself as an actor but here actually does act. It's an oddity and worth watching for Mature.
