Movie Reviews of Too Bad She's Bad
Movie Review: screwball comedy, italian style
Summary: 5 Stars
I was very pleasantly surprised by this movie; It's fun and interesting to start out with, when Sophia Loren and her pals try to steal poor Marcello's beloved taxi, and Loren is unbelievably sexy, but the movie really takes off with the entrance of Desica who seems to be having the time of his life as an older thief bemoaning the crude methods of the younger generation of thieves. This movie is almost like Bringing Up Baby Italian Style; the wacky unpredictable woman and the befuddled bumbling man who is both in love with her and totally exasperated with her. Best of all, the movie gets better and better, climaxing with a terrific farcical sequence aboard a bus and culminating in a police station/courthouse scene that once again mirrors the American comedies of the 30's only with a distinctly Italian Flavor. Well worth seeing for so many reasons!
Summary of Too Bad She's Bad
A blonde Sophia Loren, an unknown Marcello Mastroianni and a comic turn by BICYLCE THIEF director Vittorio de Sica are the active ingredients in the Italian treat, TOO BAD SHE'S BAD."SHE" of course is the Italian "anatomic bomb" Loren, stealing hearts as a lusciously larcenous petty thief. Mastroianni is the na?ve young cabbie who tries to set her straight, while de Sica, as Loren's smooth con man papa makes sure his not so little girl stays on the crooked and narrow.
Already the "Number 1 Cover Girl of Europe," "New York Times" critic Bosley Crowther wrote of her attributes: "One striking point is the luxurious Sophia Loren, who is something to look at from any angle or any side . . . she displays such a full and shapely figure she makes it a pleasure to consider being robbed."
Artfully directed by Alessandro Blasetti, TOO BAD SHE'S BAD is a delightful romp , the first pairing of Lorena & masrotinana not too mention the historic first appearance together of these three legends of Italian cinema.
