Shortly after her son [Tommy Rodger] leaves home, sweet-natured Kristin [Toni Collette] discovers that her husband [Tim Daish] is cheating. When she hears that her Italian grandfather Giuseppe Balbano [Alessandro Bressanello], with whom she barely had contact, appears to have passed away, she seizes the opportunity to escape her worries. Shortly after her arrival, she meets a handsome Italian [Eduardo Carpetta] and nothing seems to stand in the way of a sunny, romantic adventure. Until Kristin discovers that her grandfather was not only a winegrower, but also the head of a mafia family and that he has appointed her as the new family head. With Bianca [Monica Belluci] as adjutant, Kristin tries to make the best of it. Faint crime comedy full of corny Italian caricatures wouldn't have been worth a wink without Collette, who manages to give flesh and blood to her character despite the weak screenplay. It's not enough to save this monstrosity, but it does make you wonder why someone with as much (proven) talent as Collette stoops to this kind of trash.

Weak action comedy. The story is what you can expect in this genre, so limited and purely serving as a coat rack for jokes, jokes and action. Unfortunately, that is of a lousy level. The action is still okay, but the humor is very forced and not funny at all. In addition, it is also far from original. There is also little to no chemistry between the actors. Collette also doesn't seem to feel very comfortable in her role. Visually there is little to criticize. Everything looks neat. 2.0

Nice film in which a woman finds out that her recently deceased grandfather was a mafia boss. A nice setup for a comedy like this that manages to get unexpectedly violent here and there. Monica Bellucci is well cast, but it is Toni Collette who manages to make the most of it in an entertaining role.
