Well, at least I think it's better than Casino Royale 1967
20 October 2020
This is a Finnish spy comedy that makes fun especially of James Bond movies. I kind of liked the tone of it - even though it's funny and silly, it isn't over the top, not trying desperately to be funny and not as annoying as the 60s' Bond spoof Casino Royale.

The first half was better, but towards the end the plot became somehow random and I didn't know anymore what's going on. That also has to do with the poor sound quality - with no subtitles it was sometimes difficult to hear what they muble. Especially the parts where the main villain talks while wearing a rubber mask and the sound is actually coming from behind the mask!

I give some credit to this movie because it has a spontaneous feeling that the makers certainly had fun while making it. Also some good actors are involved, most notable Tenho Sauren who is always pleasure wherever he acts. Him and the lead actor Ilmari Saarelainen both were together also in the popular tv series Tankki täyteen. That was funnier than this though.
