Movie Reviews of La Cage Aux Folles II
Movie Review: Birds of a feather flock together!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have yet to purchase the DVD, for I was afraid to find it would be subtitled, for I watched both the subtitled and the later dubbed English version both at the theater.
I literally DRAGGED my mother, my MOTHER!LOL...to see it, begging her, telling her it was priceless, since we both got a chuckle out of the first one.
By the middle of the film, my mother was nearly sliding out of her theater chair, tissue in hand, and laughing so hard, she couldn't see!
Now that I know this is dubbed, I'm definitly buying it.
I won't get into the movie, for enough already have. But this is by far, one of my favorite films. And I don't like comedy much. I'm just not the type, especially slapstick Steve Martin, etc...
But this, not only is not slapstick, but an excellent storyline, plot, everthing. The twists and turns are hilarious, especially since you often 'see through the eyes' of Albin, and his pathetically hilarious plight of just not being able to stay out of trouble for 5 minutes alone!
Highlights:
The train scene, taking off more than just a load of passengers...
Renalto: "I'ts simple. You're a man, pretending to be a woman, pretending to be a man".
Albin: "That was a little too deep, can you run that by me again?"
Albin getting shoved into the 'womens' quarters at Renalto's childhood village in rural Italy, where Albin is disquised as a REAL woman here in the film, on the run, and is forced into a real woman's world. The cooking, cleaning, scrubbing on hands and knees...and finally having enough of that, he says to Renalto, "I don't want to be a woman anymore. If this is what being a woman is like, I don't want any part of it anymore."
The birthday cake scene. *By far, the funniest scene in the whole movie*
Albin, again:
Being told it's 'sponge' cake, one of those party cakes where the 'girl' pops out, with "Surprise!"
Well...
"I'm not going in there, I'm not a sponge!"
"I'm a diabetic!"
"I'm scared of the dark!"
and on and on he goes, begging them not to put him in that thing.
Hilarious!!!
You GOT to see this. Truly a masterpiece of a film. Funnier than hell, 3x as funny as the first, and the III'rd just doesn't cut it, in my opinon.
La Cage I was good, granted, but II just takes the cake, no pun intended.
Summary of La Cage Aux Folles II
"Even more funny this time around" (The Film Journal), Ugo Tognazzi and Michel Serrault reprise their roles as the two madcap domestic partners from the hilarious hit La Cage Aux Folles. Having "become the most improbable of male screen heroes" (New York), Renato and Albin are this time taking on the secret service in an unforgettable cross-country - not to mention cross-dressingadventure. In a move to make his partner, Renato (Tognazzi), jealous, the flamboyantAlbin (Serrault) waits in a local café - dressed as a womanhoping to be picked up. But Albin gets more than he bargains for when the fly he catches in his web is actually a spy who uses him as an unwitting courier of secret microfilm! Now on the run from ruthless agents, Albin and Renato flee toItaly where they attempt to hide out on a farm with Albin posing as Renato's wife! Can Albin escapethe deadly pursuit of these relentless spies or does he have to sustain this charadeas a woman forever?Similar DVD Movies
