Agent Dick Steele moet voorkomen dat generaal Rancor de wereld vernietigt met een speciale raket, waarvoor hij alleen nog een bepaalde computerchip mist. Deze chip is uitgevonden door professor Ukrinsky, met wiens dochter Steele wil samenwerken in deze zaak, niet wetend dat zij een KGB-agent is. (Buena Vista International)

Engels A parody that doesn't offend with its content, but that formally it's objectionable. A few excellent jokes save a lot of this showcase of bland situations, which I’m giving a solid three stars really only because I have a soft spot for Mr Nielsen... But I don’t want to watch it again. 50% ()

Engels I generally have problems with comedies where Leslie Nielsen is the main entertainer, and I tend to rate them much more conservatively than the mainstream. This is because I prefer subtler, more sophisticated humor. Humor, in general, is problematic. Eliciting emotion or adrenaline can be done the same way for different people or cultures, but laughter doesn't work like that. I managed to last about 40 minutes with this one; I really tried, but I didn't find anything funny. Instead, with each minute, my sense of embarrassment for the creators grew, similar to what a man might feel after disappointing a woman in bed for the fifteenth time in a row. Overall impression: 10%. ()

Engels Leslie Nielsen became the star of movie parodies by basically playing the same character over and over again. It may sound like criticism, but I actually consider it a positive. I found all the agents and detectives he played hilarious, and I still do. His acting had a certain quirkiness to it that often reminded me of the Looney Tunes characters. Yes, especially Wile E. Coyote. Spy Hard was definitely not a quality film. In fact, I don’t even consider it a film. It was rather a long series of sketches that parodied many (and I mean many) well-known films. If the filmmakers hadn’t insisted on making a film out of these individual sketches, I would have been more generous with my rating, but this way, two stars are enough. / Lesson learned: You can live without your arms, but you will get into many precarious situations.
