This film, which could be considered a precursor to the modern actioner, suffers from overly familiar situations and rather uninspired direction, but it improves as it goes along and has a competent cast. The satiric nods to Roger Moore's Bond image (here he's presented as a bearded misogynist) are also worth noting (Moore was at the zenith of his Bond career at the time). (**1/2)
