History Film / OSS117

* ToneShift: The early films (from 1957 to 1971) generally stuck to the SpyFiction genre without veering into comedic territory. The 2000s films starring Jean Dujardin are pretty overtly {{parod|y}}ies of the genre meanwhile, and are {{farc|e}}ical from the first scene to the last.

** A number of jokes concern LesCollaborateurs.

** The French political context is lampooned, with 117's colonialist mentality and his over-the-top affection for (space-filling nonentity) then-French President René Coty.

* IdiotHero: These films turned OSS 117 into a paternalistically racist, short-sighted and clueless idiot. He has other qualities that allow him to triumph of numerous odds nonetheless, such as his [[BornLucky luck]], his {{determinat|or}}ion, his fighting skills, and being situationally cunning.

* AdaptationalNationality: Hubert is American (of French ancestry) in both the books and the older films. He became purely French in the Jean Dujardin films.
