I am not sure why there is such animosity towards this film from the other reviewers! Charleston s a bit different from the usual Bud Spencer films: so what? The fight scene is a bit later than usual, but it's well worth the wait. Think of a mix between 'Odds and Evens', 'The Sting' and 'Pink Panther', with plenty of good slapstick: Spencer's co-protagonists Herbert Lom and James Coco are actually hilarious, especially Coco's running joke of the telephone getting tangled. Art direction is pretty good, especially at the end, with the big fight in the theatre and the elaborate choreographs. Perhaps it's a bit of an acquired taste, but needs to be watched again to be fully appreciated.
