Sandro can avenge him and also win back the booty; clearly sorrowful, he moves into an unknown future.
criticism
Karsten Thurau criticized the fact that extremely silly moments and more serious scenes did not want to merge into a stringent story, but also blamed the extremely below-average synchronization. He sums up that the film seems quite tensionless and confused. The lexicon of international films judges: "A story about friendship and initiation embedded in a striking criticism of capitalism, which tries too hard to combine exciting entertainment with social reality."
Remarks
In Italy, the film was released again in February 1977 under the title Gli scippatori . Filming locations were Milan , Riccione and Misano Adriatico .
