It's a spoof of other spy films, but it never goes too far overboard with the parody like Austin Powers, which is what I love about it. The main character is not an unbelievable buffoon, but a smart, capable, sophisticated spy—not unlike James Bond but with his own, funny personality—with a few good one-liners and who appreciates a good banana. Sure, it's very cheesy at times, but that is balanced with a generous helping of action and a decent storyline, topped off with spot-on performances and fun dialogue. There is one stunt in particular, involving a helicopter and a well-known Brazilian statue that had me on the edge of my seat.
This movie is both funny and tense. It's never boring, and every scene has something good in it. Mike Connors is great in the lead role, and he's backed up by some outstanding performances by Susan Fleming and Raf Vallone. However, I particularly enjoyed Terry-Thomas' pitch-perfect performance in the role of an unassuming chauffeur with a few tricks up his sleeve.
I saw this film at a revival house in Los Angeles many decades after its release. I was initially intrigued because of the awesomely hilarious title and the strange but funny trailer I'd seen played the previous week at the same theater. Everyone in the theater laughed and had a good time, but after it was over I overheard some of the other people in the theater say that it was so bad it was good. I didn't get that feeling. I just felt like it was good. I haven't been able to find it on home video and I get the feeling that it never received a wide home video release, if any, but if you get a chance to watch it I highly recommend it.
The plot of "Kiss the Girls" is actually pretty similar to "Moonraker"...an official Bond movie which seems like a parody of itself due to all the gadgets and the silly sci-fi plot. And, like "Moonraker", the baddie hopes to wipe out the human race so he and his bevvy of sexy ladies in suspended animation can repopulate the planet!
Out to stop him in Ageny Kelly of the CIA (Mike Connors), a banana-chomping secret agent who is tough but not nearly as competent as Bond. To make up for his deficiencies, a female British agent (Dorothy Provine) helps along with a HUGE number of gadgets that she and her chauffeur (Terry-Thomas) have at their disposal.
So is this any good? Well, it's not dull. But it also isn't very good either. Connors is fine in the lead though later in the story he seems to have very little to do. Provine is terrible, as she seems about as British as a taco! Plus all the gadgets get to be pretty silly after a while. Overall, a curiosity more than a good movie...but one that isn't dull at all.
Most of the female actresses are forgettable, particularly the one who develops into the lead. The arch villain is threatening, but also not maximized, and his henchman is particularly uninteresting, and unconvincing as a bad guy. THe film switches up between serious and campy, and it's just not written clever enough to pull it off.
That said, the movie is visually gorgeous, with shots of a Rio De Janiero in the late 1960s, with one fantastic interior after another, a mix of Brazilian culture with mid-century modern. You want to see a Rolls Royce driving a jungle road? You'll see it here. It's too bad the leads weren't more engaging, or given more character in the script to work with.

- CuriosidadesMike Connors has said that he performed the stunt where he hangs from a rope attached to a helicopter flying around the Christ the Redeemer Statue because a local Brazilian stuntman refused to do it.

Mr. Ardonian: Miss Soong should have noticed this is the second time she has been here and second time translating. This time there are two of Ardonian's guards who are armed and the large portal doorway next to her is open. This door was closed the last time and there were no guards.Soong has no idea what Ardonian has planned for the Chinese delegation and her. Before that rocker launches Ardonian will have murdered the entire delegation and the lovely Miss Soong will be dragged out to a preparation room getting her ready to be placed into cryogenic hibernation.

Wilma Soong: [Soong is confused as Ardonian didn't notify her this was going to happen. So Soong Is completely in the the dark on this. She will sit and wait for this to develope. So she is following Ardonian's lead]
Mr. Ardonian: [Ardonian says] I want you to be perfectly clear on this and I want to eleaviate your worries once an for all
[He turns up a switch and electrocutes the Chinese delegation]
Mr. Ardonian: ELECTRICAL BUUUUZZZZZ .
[They are all dead leaning back in their chairs with their eyes wide open looking up at the ceiling with their mouths open their heads leaning backwards. They look like a pile of dead mackerel at the fish store]
Wilma Soong: [Soong leaps to her feet and jumps up on the higher level of seating, she is in complete disbelief she is still holding her microphone she looks over at the Chinese delegation and they all have their heads tilted back eyes looking straight up mouths wide open. Soong is gawking and her mouth is wide open. She can only make a gasping sound] gasping sound
[then Soong looks back over at the delegation still cannot fathom what has happened. She looks over at Ardonian and let's out with a shrill screech]
Wilma Soong: shrill screech Soong is starting to hyperventilate and is going into shock she says to Ardonian
[Then she is hyperventilating and gasps]
Wilma Soong: gasp
[Soong can't believe how the seven man delegation are all looking up with their eyes wide open looking up and their mouths wide open]
Mr. Ardonian: [Ardonian looks over at the Chinese delegation and thinks he has completely fooled them getting the much needed rocket he needed to sterilize the world .He lets out a very sinister laugh] very sinister laugh
[Ardonian wasn't happy that the Chinese held him up and kept him wondering when and if they were going to agree to his plan.Then his attention turns to Miss Soong. Ardonian starts to look at Soong up and down as she stands there hysterically hyperventilating, nothing like the very cool sly fox that was in his office only a few hours earlier.]
Wilma Soong: [Soong looks at Ardonian and finally drops her microphone and screams out] WHY, WHY
[she starts to charge Ardonian. She is having a very hard time breathing and she is taking very deep breaths. Soong is hyperventilating with nerves]
Mr. Ardonian: [Two of Ardonian's guards grab Soong one under each arm. Between the jumping up to her feet and the guards grabbing her arms Soong's dress is pulled skin tight on her. Ardonian looks at the extremely nervous hyperventilating Soong and let's out with another] very sinister laugh .
[Directed at Soong. He says to Soong]
Mr. Ardonian: you should be very grateful you are still alive.
[sinister laugh]
Mr. Ardonian: Ardonian. gives Soong a very sinister laugh.
[Soong doesn't answer him but continues to breathe deeply her chest heaving up and down. Soong's breasts are heaving up and down with her deep breaths. Her dress is very tight on her chest and her belly. Ardonian looks Soong all over.She has a very perplexed look on her face trying to figure out what has happened. Only a minute ago she was finishing up this assignment now what?He turns to the guards saying]
Mr. Ardonian: Take her to the preparation room they are expecting her and they know what to do with her.And after she has been prepared bring her to my laboratory I want her taken care of as soon as possible
[Ardonian looks at Soong and yells]
Mr. Ardonian: OUT ! Ardonian was watching Soong's breasts heave up and down . He knows exactly what he is going to have done to Soong and how humiliated she will be.
[the guards turn and one grabs Soong's bag and start to walk Soong away. Soong is fighting them but she is completely powerless against the two powerful men. All she knows is she is being taken to a preparation room to be prepared and but for what ? Only earlier Soong had promised Ardonian that once this mission was complete they would have time for other things and she gave him a very sexy smile - letting Ardonian know once the mission was over she was going to be wined and dined by him and bedded. She cannot understand why he tricked them and murdered her bosses and what is he going to do to her. Soong didn't know that Ardonian was going to cook her goose and give her the works ! Within the hour Ardonian will make Soong look far more ridiculous than her comrades from the Chinese delegation sitting with there heads back eyes wide open and mouths open wide. The room guards take Soong to the preparation room and they met two more of Ardonian's guards who quickly start to remove Soong's dress, then they remove her shoes, her slip, then her stockings bra and panties. Soong is nude and they place an ill fitting yellow robe on her]
