We have certain ... well prejudices about different nationalities. Sometimes even the people of a land can see certain things that can be attributed to a lot of people. Take Italians for example ... they have a charm about them, but they also can be quite hot headed. Now obviously that is not true of every single one of them.
But the movie makes fun of these preconceptions we and they themselves have. Like waiting in a line patiently. Again if you dissect the movie and you feel this is offensive, you will not hav fun watching this at all. Which would be a shame because through all the things that are said and shown (the love of the mother is another major thing, gender roles in general), this takes them and makes fun of them.
And all that with some heart added to it. The ending may be a bit too much (and also quite the radical change from one second to the other as it seems), but it still works if you let it.
