An obvious James Bond rip-off, and an extremely bad one at that. There are very few moments of actual fun in this. The "hero" is the movie, Diabolik, is supposed to be a villain that you are rooting for, but instead you'll probably despise him just like I did, and root for the incompetent cop who never seems to be able to catch him. Diabolik is a thief who kills lots of people, including a lot of innocent bystanders most of the time, and we are expected to like him and his greedy girlfriend. The acting and dialogue in this movie are especially terrible. The brief cameos by Terry-Thomas are the best parts of the movie. His appearances was like breaths of fresh air, and I probably gave a point to this movie for him alone. As for this movie...just watch one of the 007 movies again. DIABOLIK is the same thing anyway, only infinitely worse.
