“Made In Italy” (** out of four) was a trite comedy drama about a struggling artist (Liam Neeson) and his young son (Micheal Richardson) who travel to Italy to sell the house he inherited from his late wife but complications ensue when they both realize that personally and emotionally they are unable to let the house go. Neeson’s effortless charisma and likeability does all that it can to keep this movie afloat but it’s ploddingly told and never particularly moving or funny. Him and Richardson are real life father-and-son which is odd since they don’t have all that much chemistry with one another. Arrivederci!
