I watched this rather accidentally on TV and went through it as I'm a fan of Teresa Mannino's comedy. This is a light Italian romantic comedy with several parallel plots, all about finding and losing love and maybe finding it again. The film is full of comedian overacting, somewhat cliched with little credibility, and some twists of the plot are quite predictable. It does hold the odd surprise though. There is a bit of an attempt at deeper messages in the film, which is OK, not super convincing, but not annoying either. The strong point of the film is the ensemble of actors. I really liked to watch them go through the twists and turns, they got me to care for them and gave me a good number of laughs. Also you don't often have in such films besides more "normal" people a thing between a member of the European parliament and a Baltic prime minister. This is not normally my kind of film, and at the end of the day it's nothing great but fun to watch. Why not? 6.4 stars.
I saw this in the original Italian language, I doubt I'd enjoy this in a dubbed version.
