Definitely not one of the best pixar movies, but not the worst either. It's an enjoyable film, with excellent animation but with a story too simple to be a Pixar film (especially after their last work, Soul).
There are a lot of references to movies, music and Italian actors (the fantastic Mastroianni hanging in the Vespa they created) that symbolized the so-called "Italian Golden Age", which starts in the 50s and ends in the early 70s. In addition, the film succeeds in representing what was the Italian dream of the young people of the time: the much admired Vespa.
However, as I said at the beginning, the plot has nothing special, so it didn't keep my interest threshold too high.

[-] The plot is too simple; there is no real climax
[+] Excellent animations, nice quotes that make us dive more into the Italian 50's.

6/10
