Customer Reviews
I've seen it
This one was all right, but more of a "two guys show up and right social wrongs in early South America" type of film. There are of course several fight scenes where Hill and Spencer employ their signature fighting styles and a casino episode where somebody wins a lot of money at roulette.
Not as funny as "watch out we're mad" but I don't regret buying it because I am a fan of Hill and Spencer and trying to complete my collection. Two Missionaries is a bit outdated in style like the old Chuck Norris "one man army" type films, but real fans will buy it anyway like I did. Other than that, it sort of looks like they used early digital technology to film it.
Definitely worthy of a more decent DVD edition
This is a very nice and underrated Hill/Spencer movie.Definiely worth seeing as an early childhod memory.What's more,there is considerably more to it than the average Trinity fist/fight thing.Clever plot and dialogues as well as tropical atmosphere.But the sad part is that this DVD edition is lousy VHS transfer and does not include the original aspect ratio.This seems to be ancient history for almost every Hill/Spencer US title.You know the rest:the original Italian DVD is widescreen and of superior video quality but not English friendly as usual.The choice is yours,but this lousy edition is pricey as well(if you only check the price in some ebay listings...)
Two Missionaries
Not quite as good as some of their other spoofs, but nonetheless an essential addition to the Trinity collection. This movie, with a tropical island twist, runs along similar lines. Good Trinity, bad Bambino, and very corrupt island hierarchy which must be dealt with by the spoofy and slapstick hands of these brothers. To be expected from these two, not much in the way of priestly advice/sermons, but more good tough guys vs. very bad rough guys. Acting as usual tends to be a little lacking, but these movies aren't academy material, just good, wholesome, coach potato snorting slapstick. Recommend.
