Due imbroglioni e mezzo

This is a refreshing Italian comedy about two charming crooks and a bright kid, with some fine situation comedy, excellent timing, very good acting (especially from the three main actors, the boy included), a natural feel and a few emotional undertones (luckily not treated too mushy). The rhythm is alert but not rushed, the script and directing are generally fine (except a few moments when the crooks seem a bit too gullible), and there are no fart jokes and no boorish sexual innuendos.So why not give it a higher vote? Unfortunately, it's too long or diluted as a miniseries, considering the amount of comedic or cinematic material. Perhaps the first part was a hit in Italy and they wanted to cash in, as it usually happens. It's really a shame, because otherwise it had all the ingredients for an excellent comedy.
