Thicker waistlines and thinner dialogue don't stop I Spy Returns from being an enjoyable reunion for the stars of the hip '60s TV series. From 1965 to 1968, Bill Cosby and Robert Culp were the ultimate "salt and pepper" duo, playing super-spies Scott and Robinson (respectively) in a show that combined Mission: Impossible intrigue with witty banter and effortless biracial chemistry (at a time when such pairings were still considered experimental). A quarter-century later, Culp was still delightfully acerbic, Cosby had become a TV icon, and I Spy Returns gave them a happy excuse to wreak havoc in Vienna, where Robinson's son (George Newbern) and Scott's daughter (Salli Richardson) are freshly minted spies subjected to unwanted fatherly meddling. It's TV fluff from start to finish, but Cosby and Culp are still cool together, even when they're buck-naked captives of a sniveling British mercenary. It ain't pretty, but it's sure to get a laugh. --Jeff Shannon

4.0 out of 5 stars A nice reunion, but not perfect, December 29, 2004

By	W. A. Comeau (Minneapolis, Minnesota USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Reunion movies tend to have their faults. This one is no exception, although I would think it was better than average. Yes, they go with the silly 'the kids are taking over Dad's job, and Dad sneaks around to make sure they don't screw up' plot. However, this really shines in the same place the original series did -- the interaction and dialogue between Cosby and Culp. After all this time, they were still being those characters! Yes, while the scene where they are tied up naked might have been a little more fun if they had been a bit younger *cough*, it led to a wonderful scene. The young stars are pleasant enough, and do their best with what they're given.

3.0 out of 5 stars Old TV show reunion, unsuccessful as usual, October 2, 2002

By	Charles Power (Columbia, MD) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

With the exception of the rather long series of Alien Nation reunion movies, few TV-movies showing old stars in their old roles have had much success, and this funnied-up resurrection of Kelly and Scotty follows the rule. Getting the progeny of the two heroes together as the new generation spies was as obvious as it was silly, and the writers couldn't resist the urge to make the show a parody of itself. There is no suspense, and it's impossible to take the characters at all seriously. On the plus side, it does feature an early appearance of the beautiful Salli Richardson, who has gone on to co-star in the Sci-Fi Channel's "Eureka!", as Scotty's daughter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Reunion Movie!!, August 21, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: I Spy Returns [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I saw this movie in the early 90's,and it was nice to see Cosby and Culp together again after over 20 years since the late 60's.Although Robert Culp did not become as famous as Bill Cosby.I think Culp is a superb although unfortunately an underrated actor.I'm glad to see that this fine reunion movie will be on video soon!!
