This moves along very well and the story is charming with all the performances and the whole production working very nicely. That is, until the end. The end is an audience survey wish-fulfillment cop-out. It's not bad, but it might have been better.
Aside from the end, the film is a pleasure of little human comedies; of the things that bind people and also make friendship difficult. It's a fine story and mostly a very good script.
The actors are all good. Luchini usually finds the right role and here he is as good as usual. He's augmented by a largely female cast and all the characters come out well.
This is more than a solid comedy and has many strong moments. There is a little more in the tales of the women on the 6th floor.
