Spy Hard
As Reviewed by James Brundage
This is the first great parody - movie of 1996!
This hallarious comedy staring Leslie Neilson as Agent WD40, "Dick Steele(Yes, they do a joke on the name!)" has parodies of "Apollo 13", "True Lies", "Speed", "Sister Act", "Pulp Fiction", "Home Alone", "007", "Rambo", "In the Line of Fire", and "Jurassic Park". It centers around an old nemisis of Steele's, a General Rancor, who has an intent to destroy the world. He also has, as a hostage, the daughter of an old flame killed during the beginning of the movie. This movie, I will say, is classic Leslie Neilson, a movie filled with jokes that aren't funny anywhere else but are mystically good out of the lips of Neilson.
