Third in the series of seven self-aware Hope-Crosby Road comedies, this Ishtar-like entry was one of the most popular. Full of Hollywood in-jokes and asides to the audience (much like Warner Bros cartoons), the Road pictures transcend their dated settings with a modernistic approach that has stood the test of time. Famous for an unplanned blooper where a camel spits in Hope's face. The duo's reactions were so funny that the bit was left in the final cut.

Don't sell yourself short, John. "Spies Like Us" is a lot of fun and worthy successor to these magnificent films.

I like "Spies Like Us", but it never reminded me of "The Road..." movies.

Just caught it on TCM a couple days ago. Still the only "Road" movie I've seen... should check out the others one of these days.

The entire Road series is worth watching.

The last film in the series, "The Road to Hong Kong" (1962) is only for completists. (It's a reunion picture of sorts, released more than 20 years after the previous Road movie, "The Road to Zanzibar.") Hope and Crosby's schtick was getting old and dated by then, and the movie simply isn't very funny. It does feature a young and delectable Joan Collins, though.

These movies are also the inspiration behind the Road To... epsidoes with Brain and Stewie on Family Guy.

Why should they be offensive? These days there's always somebody who objects to something. Tell them to get lost, but to enjoy humour.
