4/10
Bowling, basketball, and babes

This review is based on a decent dub of a fullframe English-language print with Greek subtitles. Ray Danton makes for a passable if fairly bland Bondalike in this Eurospy entry, which features Super Agent Superdragon doing battle with evil genius Fernand 'don't call me Fernando' Lamas (Carlo D'Angelo). Ably assisting him are beautiful undercover agents Comfort (Margaret Lee) and Charity (Marissa Mell), who tells Superdragon he'll have to assume she's a genuine redhead--for now. Also helping out is gadget expert Babyface, played for comic relief by heavyset Jess Hahn, a few years away from playing opposite Marlon Brando in the kinky kidnap drama Night of the Following Day. Some of the highlights include a scene in a bowling alley (did they have bowling alleys in '60s Europe, or was it a set?), a high school girls basketball practice that descends into a catfight, and some picturesque location footage which probably looks more impressive in the film's original 2.35:1 aspect ratio. A pretty run of the mill genre entry with a decent cast but not much story.
