B-
All the heterosexual characters are involved in murdering or deceiving each other, while our two gay characters simply love one another...so the message of acceptance is even more boldly proclaimed in the end. And for 1980, that was groundbreaking. Go to Full Review

After monstrosities like Cruising and Windows, it's a delight to see an upbeat gay movie with loveable characters and a happy ending. Go to Full Review

Robert P @Superbad Sep 2, 2026 While not as good as La Cage Aux Follies, still this hold up as a very good movie to watch. by the way, the original movie is now a Criterion movie! See more Ed . @RT01276001 Aug 29, 2025 Definitely number 2. See more Simon T @MovieTart Dec 10, 2020 Unusual in that the sequel is just as funny as the original, largely because everyone involved takes it very seriously. There is no forced playing for laughs as the outrageous plot (nonsense about a spy ring after a microfilm) becomes the means for some wonderful satire about masculinity, homosexuality and the innate stupidity of gender stereotypes. It also looks great in the Nice and Italian locations, and Ennio Morricone has fun referencing the Bond themes and his own spaghetti Western scores. See more Dec 22, 2016 Not as good as the first film but I just adore these two on screen. Albin is an over dramatic flower, god do I love him, he's my freaking spirit animal. See more Sep 10, 2013 Despite some funny gags, this rather pedestrian film can't hold a candle to the original. In fact, it's quite tiresome at times. See more Jan 12, 2013 I liked this better then the first film. Simple story, but Albin as an Italian woman was too funny. See more Read all reviews
