      Funny version of 007

      It's strange why no one pays attention to this film. The handsome Bruce Man is still the dashing 007 picture, but the film is very black. 007 is just here to pick up girls and make a fortune. The film mocks the imperial plot of Britain and the United States.

      What impressed me most is the bed shaking and tailoring 007 joints in automatic coin brothel, the two men sat on the bed and constantly shaking very funny;
      007 classic sweet talk a girl: "Do you want us hold it for six months...

      good movie, dark humor

      The cunning of the British, wherever money interests are concerned, does not at its root care whether other countries are dictatorships or other forms of rulers. There are indeed many Americans who liberate the world for the ideal of democracy, but they often take it for granted. It was very funny to see that the American general was so excited when he sent troops to Panama, and then he was sad when he left Panama in anger.
      The story in the film is somewhat familiar. Under the bureaucracy,...

      Panama tailor

      At first I thought this was a spy movie about two political struggles. How could I know that it turned out to be a big scam, and this so-called scam was also extremely naive. Is it really a liar or a mentally retarded?

      There was a problem with the script at the beginning, but fortunately, the development of the plot seems to be reasonable, but it was later played, and the ending did not know how to end. The United States went to bomb Panama. I almost screwed up my own country, hehe,...

    Behind the scenes gags

    Jamie Lee Curtis played a wife who didn't know her husband was a spy in 1994's True Lies , and Arnold Schwarzenegger played her husband, also named Harry.
    In the first scene, starring Geoffrey Rush , there is a picture of Sean Connery playing golf, and Harry, played by Rush, goes on to say that he's tailoring a costume that resembles what Sean Connery often wears the set. The episode alludes to Connery's love of golf for playing 007.

    Evaluation action

    Although "The Tailor of Panama" is a comedy, it is a serious and thoughtful black comedy. It can be said that "The Tailor of Panama" is an alternative in spy films. Actor Geoffrey Rush does a great job in the film, and Jamie Lee Curtis does a great job despite not being a big part. (Review of Netease Film and Television Channel ) 
    "The Tailor of Panama" focuses more on characterizing and developing their personalities. The photography...
