Three comic skits set in Milan. The first is lame, worth seeing only for a few glimpses of Edwige Fenech's body (I doubt that many Japanese women - she plays one here - wear what she wears after taking a shower). The second is the best: Michele Placido is by far the best comic actor in the film - he doesn't push for laughs, so he gets some. The third is pointless, and unfortunately the longest; an example of its idea of humor is the overdrawn homosexual caricature of Celentano's right-hand man.
Final recommendation: fast-forward through the first skit to get to the "good" Fenech bits, watch the second in its entirety and skip the third altogether. (**)

Three not particularly successful comedy episodes that struggle to get a laugh, even if they try anyway. I don't understand how you can write such a script and think it's funny.

It's a good and bad movies. It's divided in three part: "Sabato" (with Lino Banfi), "Domenica" (with Michele Placido) and "Venerdì" (with Adriano Celentano).
SABATO (first episode): A company receives the visit of a very very important person. This person works for a biggest Japanese society, and this encounter is decisive for the small Italian company. And the head of this sends for encounter this one of the more lazy-bones of the society (Lino Banfi). But when this understand that is a woman...!
Vote for the actor/actress: 5/6 (Banfi is good) Vote for director: 5 (classic) Vote for writer: 4/5 (classic) Final Vote: 5/6 (Good, but it could be made more)
DOMENICA (second episode): After a hard day of job, a man (a young Michele Placido) it returns in it's house for sleep. But a series of facts hinder this, and the poor man does not succeed to sleep.
Vote for the actor/actress: 6 (Placido and the rest of the cast are very good) Vote for director: 5 (classic) Vote for writer: 5 (classic) Final Vote: 6 (Very good)
VENERDI (third episode): A famous and rich creator of sexy ballets (Adriano Celentano), have various problem with a dancer. She want to go far away the theater box and to marry a man of the Mafia. Costantine will make all for rescue the girl from the dangerous man.
Vote for the actor/actress: 4/5 (Celentano is hateful!!!) Vote for director: 5 (classic) Vote for writer: 4 (stupid!)
Final Vote: 4 (Sorry, but it could be made more)
