About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a lighter, witty spy adventure with colorful villains, voodoo-tinged atmosphere, and big chases; Not for you if dated stereotypes or drawn-out action sequences quickly wear thin.
Pros: charming lead performance; iconic theme song; inventive set pieces | Cons: overly long chases; convoluted story beats; dated cultural stereotypes
