An adventure tale for movie buffs, Jake Speed deftly lifts scenes from detective films of the '40s through the '70s to bring an added dimension to its spoof of the detective and adventure genres. When a family gets word that their daughter has been kidnapped in Paris, her father comments that they should get "Jake Speed" to find her. However, Jake is a comic strip character, and the reaction is that he might as well ask for Batman.

After a certain amount of trial and error, they eventually find the nation where she's being held -- which happens to be in the middle of a revolution. Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi
