**_Kitschy, groovy late 60s spy-adventure with Richard Wyler and an army of hot feminazis_** A handsome man on a mission in Rio (Richard Wyler) is caught between a mobster (George Sanders) & his heavies (Herbert Fleischmann) and a femme fatale (Shirley Eaton) who wants to rule the world with her army of machine gun-fortified feminazis. Released in 1969, "The Girl from Rio" (aka "Rio 70") is the second part of a duology after "The Million Eyes of Sumuru" (1967), which I've never seen and you don't need to view in order to appreciate (or withstand) this one. "The Girl from Rio" is a tacky…

This movie was more softcore porn than an actual movie and it was more long pointless camera shots than it was anything else. The characters are near pointless, the acting terrible, the story confusing - I really think this was just to show women in skimpy costumes. I barely got through it with the Rifftrax commentary which at least provided something entertaining in this weird film.

The sideboob and latex henchwoman outfits are like, 80% of the reason to watch this movie. ...We should bring silk capes back.
