Yet another awful flop from the untalented Italian actor Barbareschi. Light years far from being as good as the wine whose name he bears.
Terrible, predictable, awfully acted, pretentious and embarrassingly boring. Script was probably put together by copy-pasting parts of stories from bad action-drama movies from the 80's.
Barbareschi as wooden as Pinocchio, without being as funny and interesting. Somebody must have told this guy he is good looking and incredibly enough he believed them. Maybe he will have better success as a plumber, because acting is simply not for him.
Avoid by any means unless you like to pay for being clichéd to death.
