Top Secret! (1984)
5/10
Silly...
27 December 2015
"Top Secret!" was one of the earliest spoof movies that I remember watching back in my childhood. It was funny, hilarious and silly back then, and still does hold its own even today. There are funnier spoof movies today, but "Top Secret!" is still worth watching.

If you are familiar with Abrahams and Zucker movies then you know what you are in for here; a movie full of really odd comedy spoofs and gags.

The core essence of the story is about an American rock and roll singer named Nick who is on a promotional tour to East Germany during World War II. Here he becomes entangled in a conflict between the Nazis and the French resistance.

There was actually a fairly good ensemble of talents in the movie, including Omar Sharif, Val Kilmer and Jeremy Kemp.

"Top Secret!" does have some funny moments and does bring about a good laugh here and there.

If you enjoy movies such as "Hot Shots", "Airplane!" and the like, then you will also like "Top Secret!".
