      Game nonsensical spoof comedy. Although the characters are all from the "007" series, and the producer MGM itself also owns the copyright, there is no original content in the whole film, but it is all a spoof, which can be considered to be borrowed from the "007 series" of the same period. The fire, rub the heat, and satirize some of the problems in the series itself, such as women who love James Bond, and Bond's mercy and sex; although the name James Bond has been used, it seems that the world does not. People know who this is; there are villains who know how to conquer the world, etc., etc., all of which are turned around in this movie, but the story itself incorporates too many other stalks (such as exotic customs and the spoof fight at the end) , The traces of all kinds of patchwork are too heavy, and they don't focus on telling the story well, which makes the overall look a bit confusing and boring, and the laughs are not too funny (the laughs are a bit old-fashioned), so take a look when you are bored.

      The whole world is lying on the gun, Woody Allen was really amazed when he messed in. The normal version of 007 is the evil in the east and the poison in the west.
