Operation Caviar

The film constructs a lighthearted, almost ironic thriller, relying on the paradoxical premise of a man becoming the most valuable agent for all warring parties. It explores the comedic potential of high-stakes espionage without sacrificing the pace of the narrative.

Those who tire of gritty, violent spy stories will find a charming alternative here, where wit and improvisation triumph over brute force. What lingers after the credits is the delight of a clever cat-and-mouse game played with impeccable old-school style. — MovieFinder Editorial
