Made me laugh a bit, but it's pretty corny and the gimmick gets old quickly.

It's certainly meant to be a "so bad it's good" experience but instead it's just plain bad. If you want to see fun made of bad films, go watch an MST3K marathon. Allen's redubbing of this B-grade Japanese film is lightweight; there are innumerable opportunities for real humor completely ignored and instead we get lame grade-school dialogue. I can't figure out how Allen got work after this film; it's truly amateur. Any high schooler could do as well.

The film probably worked better on paper then it did on screen. Some amusing moments but overall not really that great. I would also say that it's the least "Woody Allen" of any of his films. If you are gonna watch it, I would recommend watching with a bunch of your friends as it seems this film would really benefit from it. Also, let it be known that I have now seen every Woody film. =)

The only consistently funny parts are those where Allen is actually onscreen. The dubbing is hit or miss and there's too much dead air, so not too much here to recommend.

Drags a lot toward the end, but some of the lines are golden and the striptease at the end is well, a striptease, so it's awesome.

It's is pretty funny. Allen wrote a few funny zingers, and the parts in the beginning, middle, and end with him in it are pretty golden. Much of it is pretty boring though and it's just waiting for the next one-liner to show up. Worth a watch for Allen's fans or anyone who liked Kung Pow: Enter the Fist.

This film predates MST3K, Kung Pow Enter the Fist, and the plethora of spoof movies, and is in fact just as good as, if not better than, many of those. Some parts are laugh out loud hilarious, others are a bit boring, but the whole thing demonstrates a clever, witty sense of humor well ahead of its time. Very much worth seeing.

Some absolutely hilarious lines. On the other hand, there's also a lot of downtime, with long action scenes lacking dialogue, and studio-injected bits of The Lovin' Spoonful performing. Still, surprisingly good, on a level with Allen's mid-tier comedies like Take the Money and Run or Small Time Crooks.

Some absolutely hilarious almost requiered-viewing jokes (we really don't get to see these in the latest Allen's films), and the last fifteen minutes are great as well (especially the last scene with Allen on the couch). Everything else, though, is pretty dull and uninteresting. Gotta love The Lovin' Spoonful, though.

Woody Allen redubs a Japanese spy film that is already in Austin Powers territory. Fish in a barrel? It's got a few good ideas though.

simply uninteresting, penned with very few jokes that have any humor. it's a shame that this movie was uninteresting, i was thinking it was promising at first look. overall a bad outing for woody allen--but at least we know where MST3K got their concept from now.
