Some hilarious parts but pretty ludicrous too

Warning: Spoilers
The second OSS 117 film that I've seen. The hero Hubert thinks that he's God's gift to women, a la the James Bond films. The story line is pretty ludicrous, but it is a fun spoof of the classic spy movie. Some of the more ludicrous parts are: * The hero and the villain falling off a lookout down the Iguazu Falls and surviving - yeah right! * Finally beating the hero on top of the Jesus statue on top of the Corcovado in Rio (I won't say any more than that) * The hero being shot out plenty of times but him never getting shot * The Nazi and Chinese sub-plots (that's as far as I'm going on that one too) * The location of the microfilm that the villain wants (again, I'm saying no more - but it's somewhere completely unexpected!)

Would I recommend others see this film? Yes, if they can put logic aside and enjoy a fun romp of a film that is inane, but very funny.
