VHS Movie Reviews of What's Up Tiger Lily
Movie Review: Absolutely hilarious
Summary: 5 Stars
There are so many great one-liners in this film that it would be hard to know where to begin. Oh, and don't miss an appearance by the Lovin' Spoonful and the guy with the really bad Peter Lorre imitation. The English dub job Woody Allen did on this movie is ten times funnier than most of the movies made nowadays. I loved it!
Summary of What's Up Tiger Lily
What better way for writer-star Woody Allen to cash in on the success of What's New Pussycat? than to write a quickie exploitation comedy that makes fun of quickie exploitation films? In some respects What's Up Tiger Lily? is a forerunner of Mystery Science Theater 3000, only instead of having actors sit back and make sarcastic comments about a cheapo movie, here they dub new dialog onto a ridiculous Japanese spy extravaganza. Allen's exquisite sense of the absurd is in fine form as espionage professionals pursue a top-secret recipe for egg salad. At one point during the planning of a break-in, a spy unfolds a map of their quarry's residence, explaining that the man "lives here." "He lives on that small piece of paper?" questions one of the henchmen. It's that silly. But it's often uproarious. Louise Lasser, Allen's former wife (and co-star of Bananas and future star of TV's Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman) is among the voice actors. --Jim EmersonAction & Adventure VHS Video
