James Bond and MI6 to save the world for another global threat? Hell no, step aside! The world has go to see another special agent, the great
Cochon (Rodrig Andrisan, also writer/director). Another adventure yet the same goal of finding the big fat spy woman who threats everybody, this time she's got a torpedo; and to find the
secret recipes of sarmale, and fish and chips. And as always a series of other spies, some deaths and distractions gets in the way of Cochon and his complicated
mission much to our amusement and thrill.
Fans and admirers of the agent (who has five films so far) know what to expect, more of the same with many hilarious and absurd moments, but there's always the element of surprise revolving whatever person he meets as you never know if they'll him out or not, and what they could possibly say. Didn't see much action on this one, might say it was a more cerebral work for the agent and the clues to find that big ass woman. Many questions came through my head, really important things: whoever has Cochon on their payroll needs to pay him decently as through the story he's always hungry and hungry agents can't concentrate on food recipes if they're not eating enough. And what about the torpedo? Well, guess the title says it all even though we don't see it.
But on the craziness of it all, the sequence where he tries to get his hair cut is hands down a comedy gold. The cute hairdresser reactions to Cochon's unusual requests are some of the funniest I ever seen. He handed like a pro.
As usual with the film series, it's another great way to travel through the locations, in this case here we have a nice view from London and it's one of those things I most enjoy about the series, the tourism bits.
Fun times with Cochon is always a treat and this one certainly has all the goods we need in serious times. 7/10
P. S.: were those mellons real?
