Review of Welcome to the North

Sequel of "Benvenuti al nord", this movie is the mirror of the first one: now the southern man has to live, for working, in the North. Here he found all the stereotypes about the northerns that are counted in his original country, as in the first chapter, but reverse. In Italy, humor about regional stereotypes is well accepted and surely with this techniques the movie can have success; but about quality it is too much a repetition of the first one with also less convincing facts and a too much fast evolution of the story and the psychological positions. Siani is a kind of little Troisi, but can't reach his talent. As a lot of Bisio's film, confronted with other Italian comedies, this movie can be seen with joy and fun, but it is nothing special and surely inferior to the first.
