    Obviously not at the same level of La Vita è Bella, but following the same style. A smart and touching comedy/satire that has war (this time a more current one) as scenario, making us realize just how stupid and senseless it really is... It's clearly a subject that carachterizes ...( read more)Benigni, with his genius and always 'innocent', and at the same time provoking humor, which makes him the greatest european humorist!

    La tigre e la neve was a movie with a mix of drama and comedy. This made the story became very interesting and enjoyable. And off course Benigni, who was so funny sometimes. It had a simple plot although, a man discovers that the woman he loves was badly injured in a hospital in ...( read more)Baghdad. He traveled to Iraq in order to help her. This movie had a good script, music, (Tom Waits performance ) and a great message of hope in the end. I recommended this movie for people looking for a romantic story with brilliant ending.

    Roberto Benigni's performance is undoubtedly filled with years of acting expertise yet a character may be grandiose although the storyline is awful... yes this is the case here.

    I cannot really review this movie seeing as my lazy person decided it best to watch half of it beca...( read more)use it was turning into decrepitude, with Benigni being the only worthwhile part of the movie.

    Watch only if you have a never-ending thirst for foreign film experiences.

    Italian movie all in subtitles...but I found it to be quite charming and unique, as well as it's hilarious moments. Roberto Benigni is so funny as the lovestruck poetry teacher that has an infatuation love for the woman in his dreams. But it is quite suprising on where he ends up...( read more) which is right in the middle of the IRAQ war zone. How they managed to pull of the film and shoot this movie in this time, is beyond me. Jean Reno co-stars who makes a nice touch to the film. A charmer. ;)
