Episodic Sex Comedy, Above Average
31 January 1999
The Italians have always been very fond of episodic sex comedies, usually around some central theme. This is no exception: all episodes are contemporary and the subject is marital infidelity. As the film was made in 1976 it has more nudity than similar films from the 1960s (Le Bambole, for example), but it is not quite as exploitative as many other Italian sex comedies from this era.

Italian film comedians are an acquired taste (I'm being very polite here), especially the "You all love me!" attitude they share with circus clowns is somewhat off-putting. However, the comedy in this film works often surprisingly well, largely thanks to Aldo Maccione and Johnny Dorelli who are just this little bit subtler than their colleagues.
