The Secret Agent Club is a 1996 American spyaction comedy film starring Hulk Hogan and directed by John Murlowski.[1][2] The film is about a secret spy (Hulk Hogan) who steals a laser gun and pretends that it is a toy but gets in deep trouble when the people find out who he stole the gun from.
When Ray Chase, an agent so secret even his son doesn't know, brings home a high-powered laser gun he stole, the theft victim sends her henchmen to capture Ray and get the gun back. But Ray's son escapes with the gun and then devises a plan to rescue his dad.
Hogan himself saw the film as a "low-budget kids' film".[3]

The film was released direct-to-video on August 16, 1996. Platinum Disc released a DVD version on February 8, 2005.
Reception
The film is listed by WhatCulture as part of the "tidal wave of garbage" in Hogan's acting career.[4]
A contemporary review calls the film "a dim-witted riff on True Lies".[5] The Lexikon des internationalen Films states: "A James Bond adventure for children was probably the starting point for this film, but incompetent actors, a miserable script, inferior tricks and great lack of craftsmanship make this idea worthless. Only the cynicism of the filmmakers is visible."[6]
