Closed action, humour to the maximum. A trick away the other, he works everything perfectly, there is nothing out of place ! Bud Spencer to the maximum of the form. Memorable sequences, from that of the game of the Lippa to the duel on bikes. Donald Pleasance funny in the part of the psychiatrist. But the top is the scene of the chorus: irresistible music and the couple engaged to escape from the killer. Phenomenal. The all one seasonned by an exceptional sound-track, compound from Guido and Maurizio De Angelis (Oliver Onions). Overall the mythical song "Dune Buggy" whose words have been written by director Marcello Fondato.
If you want to see a very funny and addictive action movie, you must watch this one... Here we have two rival wreck car racing pilots(Bud Spencer and Terence Hill), both very skilled, so skilled that after a tremendous race they finishes simultaneously... and together they wins a dune buggy, the prize for the winner. Naturally, each of them wants the buggy for himself, so the tough guys decides to bet the car in a "beer and beans" contest(!). But just when the "contest" starts, the bad ones, led by a megalomaniac rich man and his psychologist, destroy the dune buggy...... You can imagine the reaction of Spencer and Hill...
A remarkable scene: the one of the killer ("Paganini") in the auditorium.(A masterpiece!)

Way way back in 1978, this film ran on our cable about two weeks before we got our first VCR. I've been looking for a copy ever since.
It may be the single best of the Hill/Spencer collaborations; wonderfully silly and harmlessly violent. Hill/Spencer films have always reminded me of the better Warner Bros. cartoon shorts -- as if the Wolf and the Sheep Dog interrupted their long-running battle of wits and teamed up to save the peaceful sheepherders from the evil cattlemen.
If you like slapstick humour that falls somewhere between Hope & Crosby, Laurel & Hardy and the Three Stooges, but more physical than any of those, this is a film you should see.

This is a great film. A friend lent it to me, and I thought I probably wouldn't like it, but it turns out that I love it! It has everything: Side splitting scenes, like when they are singing in the choir ("Bwa-bwa-bwa!"), cheesy bad guys, retro fashion, a stylish bad guy, in the form of Paganini, and true friendship. I thought the fight scenes were amazingly well choreographed. 10 out of 10!
Along the comedy/action lines of the "Trinity" and "Nobody" series of films.
Another successful joining of Terence Hill and Bud Spencer in what has become their trademark light-hearted he-men with the heart of gold. A family favourite in my household, and has a very infectious theme song (Dune Buggy, by Oliver Onions - don't say I didn't warn you).
Watch Out We're Mad has the beautifully choreographed fight scenes one comes to expect with the Hill/Spencer movies, and the 'Beer & Hot dog contest' are reminiscent of the earlier movies, too.
Bud Spencer is brilliant as the tobacco intolerant heart of gold 'Ben', and Terence Hill as the eager 'Kid'. The only disappointment is the somewhat wooden acting of Donald Pleasance as the bad guy bosses psychiatrist.
If you enjoy the Hill/Spencer mix of comedy, action, gluttony and irony, this film is a must see
