Calzonzín inspector

"Inspector Calzonzin" is a very low-brow movie--with lots of silly slapstick and ridiculous situations. However, it also is funny. So if you're in the mood for some goofy fun, it's a decent choice.

When the film begins, two guys are on the run and escape in a small plane. However, there's a bomb aboard and they're soon blown up-- luckily the plane isn't very high in the sky and they survive. The men are assumed by some to be messengers sent from God. Additionally, one is mistaken for a government inspector who is expected in town--and the leaders are worried they'll get in trouble because they've been looting the city. Additionally, another group are revolutionaries who want to kill this supposed inspector to send a message to everyone! As far as this stranger goes, he's thrilled as folks keep giving him bribes...and he's more than willing to taken them.

If you are looking for a serious political satire film, this isn't it. It's a bit like a Three Stooges film...really dopey and with very broad humor...but it will make you laugh.

There's no doubt this is one of the funniest Mexican films ever!

This movie shows the way confusions can hit a whole small town in Mexico, which is lead and owned by a typical Mexican cacique, who does almost anything he desires until he finds out an inspector will arrive to this town by surprise and on the other hand, Calzonzin, a Mexican Indian escapes from people who tries to kill him and matches to the description Don Perpetuo has for the Inspectro and confuses Calzonzin with the Inspector.

This is just the beginning of a whole bunch of situations, all are a lot of fun, where Don Perpetuo is trying to hide away from Calzonzin, Inspector all the corruption and irregularities of his dirty government.

I always laugh out loud with Don perpetuo's parrot "pendejo!" shout every time anyone hits his cage with their head.

Having enjoyed the "Supermachos" comic books as a student in Mexico in the late 60's, I was delighted to discover this film. Excellent job casting the characters--just like Rius'cartoons ¡Igualitos! I lent out my copy and am suffering til I can buy another!!!
