4.0 out of 5 stars Good movie, no English subtitles, January 4, 2011

This review is from: Johnny Stecchino (DVD)

Johnny Stecchino is an excellent comedy, similar to the U.S. movie "The Man Who Knew Too Little" with Bill Murray. A word of warning: This DVD does not have English subtitles, but Italian subtitles are available for the "hard of hearing" who speak Italian, or Italian-speaking people whose speakers broke. This review is for the DVD that is sold from Italy, with the description on front and back of the DVD case in Italian. I am unaware if the U.S. DVD's of this movie contain subtitles in English or not. The VHS tape does contain English subtitles.

Simply wonderful, yet another master piece from Roberto Benigni. Too sad this is not available in the North American format.

Johnny Stecchino is a great Italian Movie. The reason it's a great movie is because it has every part of life in it, and all in one movie. Comedy, Sex, Drugs, Murder, Deception, Love, Scandal, It's just a great movie. I will watch it again and again, and I've already watched it a half dozen times.
