Parody of WWII spy movies in which an American rock and roll singer (Val Kilmer) becomes involved in a Resistance plot to rescue a scientist (Michael Gough) imprisoned in East Germany.
The film features a very young, very skinny Val Kilmer (look at those tiny legs). And apparently he not only does his own singing, but was dating Cher at the time... what the heck? She is 13 years older than him... weird.
The German jokes are great, knowing they are not real German. Sadly, I do not know Yiddish so I do not fully get the humor and had to read the translations online. I suspect for those who speak it the humor is more instant and the film is better. Oh well.
