Maintenant, on l'appelle Plata

Terence Hill and Bud Spencer were a great team. Their movies are kind of goofy but they're also filled with charm. I've a huge fan of "My Name is Nobody". Somehow I saw it in the theater with my brother, unsupervised, when we were really young. But until only a couple of years ago, I had never seen a Hill/Spenser movie. I'm still in my early stages of my Hill/Spenser journey but I have to say that "All the Way Boys" is their best movie so far. Their movies are fun and goofy but I don't usually laugh out loud. I laughed out loud a bunch of times watching "All the Way Boys". (I watched this movie on Tubi.)

The greatest buddy comedy starring Terence Hill and Bud Spencerdoing what they do best. Absolute joyride

As a teenager, I loved the Spencer/Hill films and this was one of my favorites. When I watched it again a few years ago I was a bit anxious that I might spoil my childhood memories by too clearly seeing its flaws now. I shouldn't have worried: although there are a few flaws (especially the overuse of fist fights and a quarter-hearted attempt at romance) it remains very entertaining. And you won't be able to get the catchy theme song out of your head.

Our two heroes are push pilots of the lowest caliber somewhere in South America. The opening scene in which Bud Spencer flies one of these jokes with wings in bad weather conditions is a classic. First you think it is one of those 'hero overcomes impossible odds' kinds of scenes, and then it turns out not to be, and then, perhaps, it was such a scene after all, in a way. You see: I'm struggling to explain it without giving anything away, suffice it to say that it's clever and funny.

The bad guys are mostly a bit lifeless, with the exception of Reinhard Kolldehoff who makes an excellent sleazy bastard, similar to the kinds Eduardo Fajardo uses to play.

Terence Hill and Bid Spencer are a couple of pilots. They're earning money by crashing planes for insurance, or trying to. Now they're on the run, and find themselves in a remote part of Bolivia. It seems to be lousy with emeralds, but the trade is controlled by Reinhard Koldehof. Nonetheless, they get their hands on a junker, restore it, and start to earn money flying supplies in.... but it's not that easy.

This rough-house buddy comedy is a very pleasant affair, with Spencer big and violent, and Hill charming and smart. There's a good musical interlude, some nice location shooting in Bolivia, and some interesting-looking planes for people who are interested in that sort of thing.

The two leads were very popular; they made sixteen movies together. Spencer died in 2016 at the age of 86. Hill is still around, although he hasn't been seen on the big or little screen since 2022.

I love these guys! Most their movies I saw as a child but even seeing them now I still consider them my all-time favorites & I can still watch them over & over & over without getting the least bit tired of them. "All The Way Boys" takes them away from the ole west but still carries the same great clean & fun humor these guys are known for. You will see LOTS of actors from previous/future Hill/Spencer films in this one. Lots of fun to watch & even the actors looked like they had a lot of fun filming it. I hope one day someone will have their full catalog of films released on DVD. Perhaps a box set?? Great movie with a very catchy soundtrack. If you can find a copy, sit back & enjoy.
