The sexy picture on Amazon is a titch misleading, which placed this movie in the also-boughts of a bunch of sex comedies. This isn't a sex comedy or a comedy at all. It's an Italian comedy.
I thought it was going to be one of those insufferable silent movie homages, but they just didn't bother with much dialogue for long stretches. No jokes, no sight gags, just people mugging for the camera for the first twenty minutes.
Then we finally get what we came to see - Happy Days' Tom Bosley and a robot gunslinger in a Spaghetti western. While I'm glad they didn't completely cop out and have an actor just perform stiffly, I was disappointed the robot was just a guy in a Tom Bosley fright mask instead of a stack of cardboard boxes painted silver. Mostly I'm disappointed in myself for thinking there was any reason this movie would be entertaining.
But when you find out that Tom Bosley was in a Spaghetti western with a robot gunslinger, you can't not watch it.
Here's the Amazon link, though it currently isn't available. If you buy something else through the link, you can support our questionable business model of reviewing movies nobody should watch.
