Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

I haven't understood why people disliked this movie so much. I think it's the best Aldo Giovanni & Giacomo movie to date! The previous three films were good, but this one is superior because it's a real movie with a real plot and a real script, not just a bunch of sketches. And it's extremely witty & funny, I nearly laughed my head off.

Using their expression: Che minchia di film! What a pity! Do you remember Tre uomini e una gamba or Chiedimi se sono felice? We hope for a quick comeback to the origins. Sometimes the money is the worst enemy.

Yeah, sometimes it's necessary a film like that. "La leggenda di Al, John e Jack" is not a masterpiece at all, but a lot of italians has crowded cinemas to see it. That's important! Because italian cinema needs films that enriche its industry. Anyway, "La leggenda" starts bad, is very slow during the first part, because of too many gags of Aldo, Giovanni and Giacomo. They're born in theatres, clubs and tv, and their comicness is already easy and circular. Too words to make the audience laugh. Probably they should share their movies writing with good scriptwriters as Age and Scarpelli, or Vincenzo Cerami (like Benigni do), or also the young Francesco Bruni ("Ovosodo"). But there's a good note about this movie: the plot is interesting. The structure is the same of a great film as "The usual suspects". So.. if you don't sleep after the first hour, you can enjoy a suprising end that, perhaps, is worth the ticket... Hooray for italian cinema! You should see "L'imbalsamatore" and "Respiro". We're able to write very good movies, and also comedies better than "La leggenda di Al, John e Jack"...

I am a true fan and supporter of Aldo Giovanni and Giacomo, and liked all of their other movies. But this one is really without a story, is boring and even the final twist is lacking credibility. Fair enough, there are points where you can laugh: I find the whole scene of John with Al's brother delicious. But other sections of the film are at the limit of bad-taste. I give this movie a 5 out of 10
