Title: Uninspired Sequel to OSS 117 Cairo Nest of Spies
Product review: The thought behind the first spy spoof featuring OSS 117 was that France's imperialist ambitions in the Mid-East were guided by clueless bureaucrats and their agents who never bothered to learn about the cultures they were controlling. And it worked! But the sequel is absolutely meaningless.Our super-spy is sent to Brazil to track down a former SS Nazi who is selling a list of French Nazi collaborators. The mission is to "deliver ransom money" to the Nazi. Right from the start, it is clear who is "on the list." When OSS 117 goes to Rio, he meets some Israeli Mossad agents who want to capture the Nazi and put him on trial in Israel...and have no interest in thelist of dirty French bureaucrats.The plot is thin...the acting even thinner. This is one French spoof that you should avoid. A much better French film making fun of 1960's espionage is "The Tall Blonde Man with One Black Shoe".
