Storyline

Bud "Bomber" Graziano (Bud Spencer) retired from boxing as heavyweight champion and has sworn to never fight again. While living his life on a ship he meets Jerry Cala' (Jerry Cala) who finds himself always in trouble due to his being as a Lombard punter. But this time he is in big trouble, setting himself unwittingly against a group of thugs who only obey orders from a new boxing champion who is widely talked about because of winning one fight after the other. When even Bomber later collides later with this big bloke named Rosco, Bomber's passion for boxing suddenly awakens. In fact, Bomber opens a gym for amateurs and begins to train promising young George. After organizing a fight where Rosco, being too strong, knocks out George, Bomber is on the verge of ruining everything he has painstakingly established and eventually decides to face big bloke Rosco in a fight himself.—Tim Vierboom



Short Review

Il film in se' non sarebbe poi male, anzi la trama mi ha stranamente colpito in positivo. Allora perche' il voto negativo? Jerry Cala', questo e' il problema. Senza di lui e senza la parte "comica" (tra virgolette perche' in realta' fa piangere) saremmo di fronte ad un onestissimo film sulla boxe e sui valori della vita (nulla di altissimo, per intenderci). Che fosse incapace come attore lo si poteva immaginare, ma la cosa piu' grave e' che e' anche peggio come comico! Ogni volta che appare sullo schermo vorresti spegnere il televisore.
