Watch Out, We're Mad (1974)
Director: Marcello Fondato
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
The double act from the 'Trinity' Westerns lend themselves rather absent-mindedly to this fairly resistible comedy geared to the great Italian fetish for gadgetry on wheels. The plot revolves around a highly-prized dune buggy, and is decorated with herds of trail-bikes, which at one point are involved in a joust-style contest. It is as bright and relentless as can be, with some of the side characters admittedly carrying a certain bite; but Fondato is a great one for never using a nuance if he can belabour the audience with a signpost.Author: VG
