Review of Top Secret! (1984) by A A — 20 Aug 2008
My number one, absolute favourite "spoof-satire-homage" style comedy from the 80's.
There were a lot of them made in this style back then like AIRPLANE, NAKED GUN and ROBIN HOOD: MEN IN TIGHTS but for me... this was the best of the bunch.
TOP SECRET is goofy and silly to be sure... but to condemn it for that, is to not "understand" why the movie was made in the first place.
TOP SECRET gets 5 stars from me (for it's genre)...
"Look, if they find you your life will be worth less than a truck load of dead rats in a tampon factory".
(At least 1 laff every half a minute)!
