Based on the books by Dorothy Gilman this movie tells the story of an old lady who gets into the spying business. By a funny coincidence Mrs Pollifax becomes an undercover agent for the CIA. Her mission is to get some important documents from Morroco; while pretending to be an ordinary tourist. Things get out of hand when Mrs Pollifax gets kidnapped by a terrorist group. And that's not the only challenge she will face.

The storyline isn't really all that great, and there are some coincidences and plot holes; but the performance of Angela Lansbury as the adorable Mrs. Pollifax definitely makes this movie worth your while.

9 out of 10.

I wasn't expecting too much from this one, but it turned out to be a pretty good movie. Rowan Atkinson proves that he's got the acting skills to play someone else besides Mister Bean. He's a quite convincing vicar, actually.

Overall the movie is funny, and the story is not bad either. Of course, it's not very realistic, but the main story of this film is good and even touching at times. The woman who enters the family is a simple housekeeper at first, but as the movie continues it turns out that she has many faces...

Does this 'comedy' have a message for those who watch it? Sure! After all, we all need a little 'Grace', don't we?
