Summary: The main plot starts with the disappearances of an OSS agent, Jack Jefferson, and a Russian cargo ship in Cairo.

OSS 117 stumbles into a web of international intrigue, that involves the French, separate factions of Egyptians, Russians, a goofy Belgian spy and even Neo-Nazis of the first hour. (Wikipedia)

Meh. Average. Mildly humourous at times and Dujardin plays the role rather well, but jokes are a bit hit and miss and the story as a whole is rather bland and unoriginal.

Humorous French answer to spy craze of the 60's and its revival by films like Austin Powers. Dujardin has all the qualities needed for silent comedy star. He can act with his face and body, and even though I am sure some of the jokes are lost in translation, physical humor is spot on. Story is weak and serves only as an excuse for over-self-confident and extremely ignorant spy to get into funny situations. Scenes with Nazis and chicken fight are great, but most gags are hit or miss.

Typisch französisch, hübsch trashig und verdreht, doch irgendwie gefiel die Geschichte nicht so und abseits des Requisiten-Spaßes wars dann auch nicht der erhoffte Punchline-Killer. Da zieh ich mir sogar den Wixxer vor. Trotzdem sympathisch.

Wouldn't work as well without the pitch-perfect Dujardin, but it's a light and funny spoof of the spy genre.

Hilarious spy spoof. Austin Powers done right. Perfect balance of zaniness and straightplay without being annoying or boring. A must-see.

Hilarious without going over the top, goofy without becoming childish, this is a wonderful Bond parody that just oozes with charm and completely catches the 60's style. Dujardin channels Connery perfectly.

Worth watching for Jean Dujardin's performance alone. If they're smart, Hollywood will come calling.
