It's been a year since we last saw Cruchot (Louis de Funes) and his merry men. That makes it 1965, and the policemen of St. Tropez has been chosen to represent France in a Police Congress in New York.
Cruchot's daughter Nicole (Geneviève Grad) wants to see the USA, but her father will not allow her to join them. The young woman is determined though, and sneaks aboard the ferry. Trying not to let her father find out, she hides from him and without a cabin she sleeps on the deck.
There's a lot of action in this film, more than in the first, both on the ferry and after they have arrived in New York. The two most memorable scenes are first a quite clever little take on "West Side Story" and a baseball fight, that shows that Cruchot has thunder in his bat.
Also worth mentioning is a call back to the first film, where a nun repeats her part, this time in a car in New York!
Nicole finds a room at YWCA, where they don't want the presence of Cruchot.
All in all worth seeing, probably most for the viewers that were born around the time of the making of the film.
