References to modern football stadiums, Italian teams Torino and Juventus and even Adolf Hitler⦠to my way of thinking this excruciatingly dull cross between a second-class Trinity and Franco and Ciccio parodies (there is also a talking horse like in Due rrringos nel Texas) is a SW in the same way Scary movie is a Thriller⦠;D
Iām more an Inter fan myself too
An Inter fan? Thatās bad (Iām a Milan supporter)!!!
Well, Iām not too fanatic, so the forum will survive this rivalry ā¦
Hobby&Work dvd is heavily cut, but unlike Trinity movies the uncut 96m30s version of Cipolla Colt/Cry Onion continues to be shown on Italian TV (last time two days ago).
Found myself laughing out loud at several moments in the first 20 minutes out of pure confusion over what I was watching, along with the strange soundtrack. The song during the ending āduelā with the distorted synthesizer was a stand out
Think Iāve found an appropriate title for double-billing with Captain Apache on some future film night with several beers in stock. Then again, that may bee too much gold for one gringo
thats good ;D ;D
really laughed
I hardly enjoyed this one. This movie is what the Germans call a āKlamotteā - silly and clownish sometimes really embarrassing. I gained the impression that it was the aim of Castellari to imitate the physical slapstick comedy of the silent movie era with their spectacular stunts (what is understandable if the movie was conceived for the kids). Only Castellariās problem is that his slapstick scenes are not even as half as artistic, funny and well-paced like Chaplinās or Keatonās. Worth a look but I wouldnāt watch āCipolla Coltā for a second time.
I canāt believe I still havenāt turned this off yet (43 min. into it).
Castellari canāt direct comedies for shit. I remember I Came, I Saw, I Shot being awful too. But thisā¦
Italian DVD looks decent,except for the credit sequence that they took from a third generation VHS tape. Why?
By the way, Cipolla means the same as my last name, Siepel, so half of an Italian pseudonym is born. Yeah, thatās right. the nameās onion, hehe.
canāt wait to finally watch this gem, oh, i forgot dittos, āgemā
Well, I did turn it off and watched a Fulci sex comedy with Edwige Fenech instead.
Reasonable choice!
Iāve seen this once (which was enough) and got a few chuckles from it. Nothing Iāll probably ever watch again, though.
Had avoided watching this one for years as I assumed it would be an unfunny slapstick mess that wasted the talents of all involved but today decided to give it a spin. What do you know? I was right the first time. Well, I guess the completist in me can tick it off the list but it hurts to see Nero, Hayden and Balsam involved in this shite.
I do not remember almost nothing about the movie with the exception of this situation, absolutely unforgettable due to its unrivaled craziness⦠:o
In terms of bizarreness this moment climbs inconceivable heights! ;D
Yes, whacky as all hell and completely unexplained that one.
i donāt remember that. Maybe better so ā¦
Even though Iāve never considered viewing Cipolla Colt, I think Iām going to give it a shot now, after all the discussion about the film.
Watch it just so you can get it out of your blood.
While watching, Iāll greedily consume onions, one after another.
