    A Venetian caprice in which Guardi and Caneletto are brought to life in an operatic buffo plot of delightful visual and dramatic allure. One of the delights of the year.

    This is an awful, stupid movie. That said, I saw it twice in the theater just for the Oliver Platt/Lena Olin subplot. They are insanely adorable.

    A delightfully silly romp which reinvents the legendary Italian lover's adventures into the realm of broad farce.

    A handsome chunk of widescreen entertainment that's as nimble as its rakish hero.
  3. It's a sweet, silly and not unintelligent romantic comedy: For a period farce, you could do worse.
