"In Like Flint" is a sequel to the spy parody film "Our Man Flint" starring James Coburn. It posits an international feminist conspiracy to depose the ruling American patriarchy with a feminist matriarchy. To achieve and establish it, they kidnap and replace the U.S. President, discredit the Head of the Z.O.W.I.E. intelligence agency, and commandeer a nuclear-armed space platform, all directed from Fabulous Face, a women's spa in the Virgin Islands. Circumstances compel ex-secret agent Derek Flint to help his ex-boss, and so uncover the conspiracy. Actors James Coburn and Lee J. Cobb reprise their roles as "Derek Flint" and spy chief "Lloyd C. Cramden", Flint's ex-boss.
Like all parodies, it's not fair to compare it to the original genre and you have to expect it to be at least somewhat silly - especially in this film the plot of feminists trying to take over the world. The last reviewer who gave it a low score obviously totally missed t.he point it's a parody It's a fun movie that moves along at a fast & Coburn is great in the James Bond spoof role. Enjoy the film & don't take it too seriously & you'll have a fun ride.

This movie ranks up with some of the funniest college movies in recent times such as Van Wilder & PCU. It's about three high school seniors who visit a college campus for the weekend and become the victims of hazing & perverse jokes by some fraternity brothers. The three main characters are likable yet very different. The three have all kinds of wild adventures & get the ultimate revenge on the fraternity guys. I wouldn't compare it to Animal House, because the movie is more about the 3 boys and their escapades & less about the frat house. There's plenty of laughs and crude humor. The unrated version also has plenty of skin. Parties, sex, drugs, wild fun - this is the way college should be!
