A very representing movie of the 60s and the comic it is based on! Would I go as far as to call this the "Fast and Furious" of its time? Probably not.
It's quite sad that such a stylish movie is now considered quaint..
Anyway, I was reminded of Lupin and James Bond. Except it's just very simplistic, while still being over the top at the same time.
If I had to summarize it, I would put it in an attractive sentence : "The greediest man on the planet attempts to screw-over a whole country".
If this was the first movie I had ever watched, I would have probably been impressed! Sadly, I just laughed for a bit, held my head a few times, and I will now proceed to forget I saw it.
