About this movie

Meet Torrente. He's rude, crude, lewd... and a real private dick! The four action-comedies that make up the wildly popular Torrente series (The Dumb Arm of the Law, The Protector and Lethal Crisis) feature the comic exploits of José Luis Torrente (Santiago Segura) - a lazy, offensive and shamelessly politically-incorrect former cop who continues to "fight" crime as a private detective. Writer, director and star Segura takes no prisoners as his exasperating alter ego engages in all manner of shady outrageousness in pursuit of his own brand of justice. The Torrente series is the most successful movie franchise in Spanish film history and a box office sensation around the world. Now Torrente's antics are available in the US on digital streaming platform for the first time.

In Mission in Marbella, everyone's favorite crime-fighting buffoon is back in action in the side-splitting second installment of the Torrente franchise... After losing all his money gambling, Torrente sets up shop as a private investigator in the seaside resort of Marbella, and stumbles upon a villain's evil plot to destroy the city. It's up to Torrente to save the day with the help of his junkie assistant, faithful bulldog, and network of crippled informants.
