AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

Wordiezett So much average

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

FilmCriticLalitRao The fun which audiences had due to Yves Robert's ingenuous story telling methods in "The Tall Blond Man with One Black Shoe" continues without any break in "The Return of the Tall Blond Man". Much of the action concentrates its focus on the notion that if a spy is created for some specific targets to be met, this person can also be allowed to die once those targets are achieved. French actors Pierre Richard as a spy and Mireille Darc as the spy's girl friend travel to Brazil as love birds where they are able to escape danger by being vigilant during all times. A key aspect of this film is about how a bureaucrat would try to do anything possible in order to please a minister ? This sub plot brings a fresh twist to the story wherein direct political involvement in matters of spies are brought to the fore. This situation gives rise to a minor yet decisive conflict between a secret agent and his contemporary.The fun does not seem to end as a lot of comic situations are added in the film to depict the futility of espionage.

wvisser-leusden Whatever the success of its predecessor, 'Le retour du grand blond' (= French for 'the return of the tall blond man') can safely be labeled as a miscarriage.Its plot, providing an almost endless sequence of just-not slap sticks, nowhere & never carries you away. Even its distant link to James Bond hardly makes sense.The only memorable scene is provided by male lead Pierre Richard, getting stuck with his finger in a street grill.However, a positive exception is made by its shooting, which is fully up to 1974-standards. But sadly that's all there is. Not even Mireille Darc is able to lift 'Le retour du grand blond' from its misery.

arthera09 The charms of the last movie were lost here. The movie turned a little too absurd for me. It seemed as if a lot of things were forced and they were not able to get me to care for the characters like I did in the last movie. It was funny, but what made the last movie enjoyable just was not there. By making everything a little more ridiculous took away the real nature of the characters. I do not think they needed to make this movie. It was enjoyable as I watched it, but I could have spent the time watching a different movie. I kind of liked the ending, but it was a little predictable. Overall not a great sequel and this is why they should not always make remakes.

Galina "The Return Of The Tall Blond Man" (1974) directed by Yves Robert is one of the most incredible things that could happen in the world of movies - it is a sequel that works, that is as funny (and sometimes funnier) as the original and is almost as clever and bright as the first movie. The soundtrack is simply unbelievable. Pierre Richard, who once again is expected to be a naive pawn, fights back with his own plan which involves so many hilarious acts of physical comedy that they may fill the movie twice as long as this brilliant Return of one of the best comedies ever made. This is the movie to rewatch and enjoy over and over again.
