A satire about Italian showbiz, the film was generally badly received by critics; in her review for La Stampa , Lietta Tornabuoni criticized the director's inability of distancing from its subject, up to the point that "the thick vulgarity of his chosen subject turns into truculent cinematic vulgarity". [2] Il Secolo XIX film critic Aldo Viganò described the film as "Some stuff that has been seen and known before, staged quite sloppily", with D'Agostino "more concerned with sneering at everyone [...] and pronouncing moral judgments [...] rather than bothering to ensure a glimmer of human consistency for his characters".
