The fourth Jerry Cotton adventure benefits from some decent New York City location footage and a lively (if sometimes inappropriate) Peter Thomas score, but generally looks and feels cheap. In a plot that reminded me a bit of Henri Verneuil's 1969 classic The Sicilian Clan, an armored car full of US currency is hijacked by baddies, and it's up to Jerry (avuncular George Nader, solid if unspectacular) to recover it. The car is operated by the 'Mells Fabo' company, which is probably cockney slang for Wells Fargo. Shot in flat and unattractive black and white, this is not the best Cotton film. No, I'm not sure which one is best, but it's definitely not this one.
