The first must-see film of the year.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Where to begin with this one? This is one of those one-off movies that is so specifically bizarre that it has never been repeated. It is of course, a James Bond parody whose secret agent is a two-and-a-half foot midget with a pudding bowl haircut and white suit. The secret agent is played by a small man known as Weng Weng. This film is undoubtedly a star vehicle for this pint-sized star. One of the most notable features of the film is how hard a little guy Weng Weng actually was. He has to do his own stunts, as clearly there weren't too many body-double stunt-men who could pass a likeness test for this guy. So basically we see him firing all over the place in various stunts, including jumping off bridges and zooming around in a jet-pack. Considering his tiny frame his physical feats in this movie are considerable.So how is the movie itself? Well, to be honest, entertaining to a point. Sure, it's central idea is pretty funny, and there are a number of amusing set-pieces; while the supporting cast of characters are dubbed with some hilarious voices and spout priceless lines such as 'he's making a monkey out of the forces of evil!'. But the problem is that it's essentially a one gag movie and it's stretched to breaking point. The action scenes with Weng Weng thwarting 'the forces of evil' get a bit too samey, with him constantly kicking hell out of men three times his size and endlessly mowing down enemies with a machine gun.For Y'ur Height Only is definitely a curiosity and one-of-a-kind movie. But ironically for a dwarfsploitation flick, it could have done with being shorter.

Like the reviewers before me, I have to say the dialogue in this movie makes it worth the watch. What no one else mentioned though, was that the voice actors used Edward G Robinson & James Cagney voices for all the villain characters. I don't know about you, but I doubt gangsters in the Philippines talk like that! A lot has been said of Weng Weng and his spy "devices", but the thing that cracked me up was the wardrobe of the Crime Syndicate - either Hawaiian shirts or button down shirts open down to the navel. These guys looked like rejects from a cheap disco! If you love bad movies, run, dont walk, to your video store and get this one!

I just bought a copy of "For Your Height Only" today...thinking it to be nothing more than a mere spoof...but I was wrong! Like "The Omega Man" this movie has a couple of bloopers, but its so funny...I choked on my drink when I watched the scene where Double-O has that fight by the ferris wheel! Even if a movie is cheap and old,don't judge by that! For the moment it is definitley one of my faves! I love these cheap foreign comedies! Agent Double-O is a master spy and a cold hearted killer, so I don't know about parents wanting their young children watching this hilarious comedy! This is worth a look! If you like this film I suggest my favourite film of all time : WATCH OUT,WE'RE MAD! Like For Your Height Only, Watch out Were mad is full of many one liners and hilarious fight scenes! This movie was made for people who enjoy so-stupid-its-funny movies! My vote 8/10 ! HIGHLY RECOMENDED!!!!!

If you don't like this movie you've got a sick problem with your head. Weng Weng is a lover, fighter and master spy. This movie got me off of hard drugs thanks to it's uplifting message that the lava flows hotter in the Phillipines, Praise the lord. They should have come out with more of these movies. The fight scenes are masterful and the dubbed in dialogue can't be beat. Both of my thumbs up.
