How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A relentless parody of spy culture that commits fully to its 60s aesthetic and its own silliness, delivering laughs through exaggerated characters, innuendo-laden dialogue, and the central joke of a swinging secret agent stranded in the 90s.
