OSS 117: Lost In Rio is the sequel from OSS 117: Cairo, Nest Of Spies from 2006. It's about the same level of humor, I wouldn't say there is any difference of quality between those two movies. It's still as silly as it can be, not the kind of humor everybody likes. For me it's just about okay, good enough to watch once but that's about it. The French secret agent OSS 117 is a mixture of Austin Powers, James Bond and Peter Sellers in The Pink Panther. He's a bit stupid but always manages to solve a case and that with alot of luck. Jean Dujardin has the right silly face to play that role. OSS 117 is a bit sexist and racist if you ask me but I guess it fits his character from the sixties. The whole shooting of the movie feels like everything is from the sixties, even the making of the movie. Don't expect a serious story because there is absolutely nothing serious about this movie. A Sean Connery look-a-like secret agent, charming but sexist, a couple dozens of goodlooking girls, a bunch of bad guys and that's what you get for the entire movie.
