How It Feels

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

A gleefully nonsensical spy spoof where a Japanese action film gets wholesale recontextualized through absurdist dubbing, turning international espionage into a quest for egg salad. It's anarchic comedy built on the scaffolding of someone else's action movie.
