08/19/2022 A musical-comedy that was supposed to be a parody of the beach party movie trend that took over at one point in the 1960's is called The Fat Spy. Despite this being a Z movie, I still enjoyed Jayne Mansfield's performance as well as the costume designs (at times) and the cheesy sense of humor. However, I have to remember that this is still a Z movie. The film had so much unbelievable lazy writing by Matthew Andrews, horrendous and forgettable musical numbers, and bad direction by Joseph Cates. The Fat Spy is just pretty horrendous and if it weren't for Jayne Mansfield, this could of been the worst movie ever made. See more @Blobbo 04/27/2021 Blobbo just see if high rating change score. (Not do tho.) See more 11/23/2020 This is why I love "Z" , "B" & parody movies. You sit back and see the humor in them. If you take it seriously, you'll never laugh. Watch high budget movies and you can pick and criticize them as easy too. See more 12/10/2017 Better than "Citizen Kane." And it has boats. And Doing the Turtle. And the worst lip-syncing outside a Super Bowl halftime. Antepostmodern brilliance. See more 11/23/2012 with a title like that and Phyllis Diller how can you loose? See more 10/14/2009 I've watched it and the film is pretty good but I feel sorry for Jayne Mansfield as she plays a bimbo character. The older characters are all basically "bumpkins" or evil and the dancing scenes are rather voyeuristic if not sexist. A decent film at best and one dvd I had no regrets about promptly selling to a "buy-sell" store. It's considered a campy comedy and that is the best description of it whether you consider it funny or not. Belongs close to the "Porky's" section of the store... See more Read all reviews
