A Dupla Explosiva

It wasn't the original film that was so good, it was Bud and Terence and the incredibly cool German dubbing.

Why a sequel?

Who needs this rubbish?!

Few films I haven't seen to the end, but here it was over after 15 minutes.

An this 15 minutes seamt so incredibly long.

Maverick or Balboa... thats how to make a sequel after so many years.

Shame on Netflix, shame on the writers, sharme on the regiesseur, shame on the actors, shame on those who like that stupid crap, shame on those who spend time on this (me included), shame on the red buggy for driving through this mountain of s***, shame on everyone on the set, shame on the beer, shame on the sausages, shame on their cow.

Remove this film from the cinemas, it is a disgrace to the memory of Bud Spencer and Terence Hill. Please don't go to the cinema to see this movie, you must not support such rubbish, it is a great disrespect to these two great men, the actors of my childhood, they raised me.

The original Watch Out We're Mad was my entry point to the funny but entertaining world of Messrs Bud Spencer and Terence Hill. Subsequent movies comprising the two (or any one of them) became a staple of my growing up years, forming part of the family TV time.

What made the earlier movies work was the fact that Hill and Spencer had equal amount of screen chemistry and charm. This was compounded by their contradicting looks and demeanour, but it also contributed to their onscreen success. Hill with his dashing, handsome-blue-eyed-but-never-naive look, while Spencer's oversized gruff, leave-me-alone counterpart played the foil. Their characters often got together due to circumstances which pulls them into action, usually initiated by half-witted baddies who make the mistake of getting in the way of - and underestimating - our lovable heroes, and end up on the receiving end of some punishing and ridiculous slam-bam, which then provide most of the laughs.

This remake has none of the chemistry between the leads nor the laughs needed to simply sit and laugh our hearts out. The plot is more or less a carbon copy of the original, and both Edoardo Pesce and Alessandro Roja attempt to turn on the individual charms of Spencer and Hill respectively, only to fall flat. Peace could not replicate Spencer's trademark aloofness and Roja of Hill's romantic charm. After awhile it becomes tedious to try and sit through, knowing well that it's gonna be near impossible for the leads to replicate memories that evoke - or even better - of that of Hill & Spencer. Gave up without finishing the movie.

This is where Italian movies could learn from their Hollywood counterpart:- Never try to replicate the genius found in the original; 'tis better to work your way by creating your own charm, even if you do borrow the plot.

Please remove this movie from the digital archives all over the world, delete any downloaded streaming files from your cache and any copy on hard-disks, forget the actors, trash it to the end, skip the trailer or even any frame on google images... and save and keep with heart the good memory of Bud Spencer and Terence Hill, love you guys you are still alive and acting together in our minds.

As a kid, I was a huge Bud Spencer/ Terrence Hill fan. Even now, I can look back nostalgically and have a good chuckle at their films. This remake however, just no. It's missing the charm; humour and personality of the original. No matter how much of a fan you are of these 2 legends, or their films, this embarrassing remake is simply not worth your time. Forget this, and go check out the 1974 comedy classic . 2/10. The dodgy Bud Spencer lookalike and and the Terrence Hill "character" is so devoid of any real personality, that it just further adds to the disappointment. I sincerely hope Netflix does not sanction any further remakes from these 2 legends, if this particular one is anything to go by.
