The Whale, by the way, stands in for 'NASA' in Ridley Scott's The Martian. The al fresco performance by drag artist Verka Serduchka and her band (playing their international hit tune Dancing Lasha Tumbai, since you ask) is on the large stage at the north end of the eye-catching, glass-covered Budapest shopping mall known as ‘The Whale’ named because of its shape and its location alongside the River Danube (and not the Seine) into which the bomb is thrown. The elegant galleria in which Susan witnesses the bag switch that puts over-enthusiastic agent Rick Ford ( Jason Statham) in danger, is the beautiful Paris Court shopping arcade at Ferenciek Square – which might be familiar to fans of the genre from another (just slightly more serious) secret-agent movie, 2011’s Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.

Opened by Károly Gundel in 1910, the business refined and reinvented traditional Hungarian cuisine has amazingly survived war and Soviet communism to remain the country’s leading restaurant.Īfter witnessing Fine’s demise at the hands of enemy agent Rayna ( Rose Byrne), Susan volunteers to take over the mission in Paris, though she’s irked to be expected to take on the less-than-glamorous guise of a Delaware housewife.Īs Susan arrives in the French capital, there are brief shots of the prestigious Prince des Galles and George V Hotels as well as, of course, the Eiffel Tower, but Budapest soon takes over.

The ‘CIA Communications Room’ and other interiors were built at Budapest’s Fot and Origo studios.Īfter the mission, when Fine takes Cooper for dinner and presents her with a delightful cake necklace, the swanky restaurant is supposed to be in ‘Washington DC’, though European gourmands may recognize its classic interior as Budapest’s legendary restaurant Gundel, 1146 Budapest, Gundel Károly street 4. With the aid of Susan Cooper, his controller back in ‘Langley’, Fine makes his getaway by speedboat, across Lake Balaton. Originally excavated as quarries in the 1700s, the caves were repurposed to store beer – though at various times they have been used as emergency shelters and even hidden hangars for Nazi aircraft. Its cellar, where he accidentally shoots the only person who knows the whereabouts of a rogue nuclear weapon, is a labyrinth of limestone caves that stretches some 23 miles underneath the Dreher Brewery in Buda. The ‘Bulgarian’ villa on the ‘Black Sea’, where agent Bradley Fine ( Jude Law) ducks out of the fancy cocktail party to snoop around the basement, is on the north shore of Lake Balaton. The action ranges from ‘DC’ to ‘Paris’ and ‘Rome’ but, apart from a couple of scene-setting shots, was filmed in Budapest, Hungary, which finally gets to appear as itself in the final third of the film. The film’s big idea is to kill off the tuxedoed agent early on and, with the identities of remaining operatives compromised, backroom spook Susan Cooper ( McCarthy) gets the opportunity to put her expertise into action in the field. Clement Stone, Earl Nightingale, Jim Rohn, Zig Ziglar, Dennis Waitley, and Charlie Jones.īusiness thinkers such as Peter Drucker, Andrew Grove, Ken Blanchard, Warren Bennis, Tom Peters, Nido Qubein, and Marshall Goldsmith have greatly enriched me with their ideas and insights.A James Bond spoof is probably not the most original of ideas, and the lazily functional title doesn’t bode well, but the Paul Feig- Melissa McCarthy- Rose Byrne team delivers the requisite amount of fun. I would also like to thank those great practical thinkers on success who have had such a wonderful influence on me - and on the world - such as Napoleon Hill, Maxwell Maltz, Claude Bristol, David Schwarz,W. Great spiritual teachers such as Charles Fillmore, Neville, Eric Butterworth, Wayne Dyer, and Roberto Assagioli have had a profound influence on my thinking.
