Could and should have been a fantastic film about a guy fighting his way up through dancing. Instead the "hero" and his friends spend their all time punching down, perpetuating the cruelty inflicted upon them by their environment.
The dancing scenes and soundtrack are ABSOLUTELY GLORIOUS (!!!) and rightly legendary; the levels of casual misogyny and violence against women intolerable for an audience in 2026, or in 1977 for that matter, to enjoy.

Sad film about a sad man.

Beautiful yes, but... the main character is unlikeable, emotionally cold and ultimately toxic, the plot is at times seemingly random, the diving scenes are repetitive and poorly explained. It's hard to discern if its a slapstick comedy or a serious drama (spmetimes it's both). Enzo Molinari is ofc a great character.

I'll watch anything Jim Carrey is in.
