Using a rather standard story the filmmakers infuse this great little movie with a great deal of personal touches and comedy. More romantic comedies should be as poignant as this one of a young Bostonian as he searches for an identity in his post-college tour of Europe. While clearly an American film set in Italy, it has some of the irony and over-the-top comedy only the Italian influences could lend it. Paul Sorvino lends it a bit of star power but the relative unknowns are great highlighted by the lead and assisted by a great group of local actors, namely the very funny team announcer. When given the opportunity, a must see.
