Operazione San Pietro is an OK eurocomedy. It's not one of Lucio Fulci's best comedies (his other movies featuring Lando Buzzanca - The Eroticist, Young Dracula - are funnier), but it's still watchable and entertaining.
Napoleon (Lando Buzzanca) is a small-time crook with big ideas. In prison in Naples where he is serving time for a robbery charge, he is sprung by accident when a foppish villain calling himself the Baron (Pinuccio Ardia) and his two numb-skull cohorts, Agonia (Ugo Fangareggi) and the Captain (Dante Maggio), tunnel under his cell, having lost their way to an expected bank vault.
