Editorial Reviews

Woody Allen took a Japanese spy movie called Kagi No Kagi, and replaced its original dialogue with an entirely new plot. In its revised state, this film follows the adventures of agent Phil Moskowitz who is on a deadly mission to secure the recipe for the "world's greatest egg salad." However, Moskowitz, with the help of the beautiful Suki and Terri Yaki, must prevent this unique recipe from falling into the hands of the evil Shepherd Wong. The group Lovin' Spoonful recorded the majority of the songs for this film. Iotis Erlewine, All Movie Guide

September 24, 2009: Woody Allen can be one of those contentious figures whose story has become larger than his works, an entertainer or an artist whatever you call him, his audience stands divided. What most people can agree on when they scrutinize his work is that he is funny(we won't try to get a consensus on his "sex icon" label.) Before 'What's up, Tiger Lily', Allen had already had success as a writer and had been in the film "What's New Pussycat" with Peter Sellers, and 'What's Up' became Allen's first directorial effort, which means he replaced the audio of a Japanese spy film with his own and recut the film.

The movie has a lot of classic Woody-esque lines and is very similar to the type of comedy that originally made him famous. It may be worth it to some viewers just to see Allen at the beginning of his long and diverse career. For others it is a hilarious albeit oft-overlooked gem in the Allen oeuvre. Watch this movie with any friends that have a quirky sense of humor though due to some more risque parts of the movie keep the young kids away. You can probably say that about most Woody Allen movies.

January 22, 2004: An absolute gem of a comedy. Anyone who enjoys a good comedy will enjoy this masterfully re-dubbed work of art though the ending is a little off the wall. The finest Woody Alan film I've ever seen (probably because Woody isn't in it!)
