Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Robi and his wife reside in a big industrial city. Just your average couple who are caught up in a fast paced, gadget saturated life. They indulge themselves in an artificial food as they enjoy their technology oriented world. However,Robi's life turns upside down as they decide to go on a cruise for some long overdue vacation time. Unfortunately, when the cruise ship gets caught up in a storm, Robi finds himself in a modern day(by modern I mean 1976)Robinson Crusoe story. I saw this movie for the first time, back when I was 9 years old. Recently, I managed to stumble on it in a video shop. After all these years, this movie still can stand as one of the funniest that I have ever seen. Very enjoyable, satisfying comedy. If you manage to get your hands on a copy, check it out. All around a good comedy movie.

Of all Paolo Villaggio characters - Robbi - is most well-balanced - to my opinion. It is not as "overly-pathetic" as Fantozzi. Au contre... In fact "Il Signor Robinson" as a movie - contains some very well written characters. Simple - but not dumb. Some scenes - I think - are exotic, unique and elegant from comical perspective. For example - I've never seen anything - like a scene - with crushed Coke can washed ashore - and the tribal chief. Actually - I was wondering - did Coca-Cola company know about it at all? I believe it was a major "Burn!" All and all that piece of comedy is timeless. I will always recommend this one to comedy fans worldwide.
