    If you've ever wished James Bond would put his mission on hold and fool around with the scores of gorgeous women he attracts, or if you wished Austin Powers was ten times funnier and had the indecency of showing his cast of lovelies without their clothes on, then Rod Steele is th... read moree secret agent for you. Certainly one of the funniest eroticoms ever made, and even without the abundant nudity it might be the best Bond parody! Unquestionably the one with the best title.

    A lot of thought went into this production and got the most out of its meager budget. Obviously writer/director Rolfe Kanefsky is a fan of the source material and manages to satirize Bond conventions with regularity, from a hilarious song-and-opening-title sequence, right down to the Connery-influenced vocal burr of Robert Donavan. Our man Steele, you see, although British works for the American government, but unfortunately being a secret agent in tough economic times means departmental cutbacks which includes flying coach and scaling back on gadgetry. "What do they do?" asks Steele expectantly when lab wizard P presents him with a pair of black tennis shoes in his survival case. "They comfort your feet, and come in very handy in case you have to run."

    Donavan is terrific and clearly enjoying himself and that extends throughout the cast, whatever their state of undress. Take De'Ann Power as evil mastermind Tangerina: every time she appears in a new scene, she's posed as a recreation of a notoriously racy photograph including LaToya Jackson's serpentine Playboy spread, Demi Moore's Vanity Fair cover, Janet Jackson in Rolling Stone, Marilyn Monroe in The Seven-Year Itch and Madonna. Throw in B-movie vet John LaZar and the beautiful bodies of Gabriella Hall, Jacqueline Lovell, Tammi Fallon, and Delphine Pacific, and any guy would be hard-pressed not to find something to smile about.
