Jeez, there's really nothing good to say about this movie. Dean Martin
was always an inept actor, even when he had good scripts, which he did
not have here. I have seen Sharon Tate in a few good roles, but I think
her voice was looped by other actresses. Nancy Kwan was good in a few
other roles, but she has nothing to work with here. Elke Sommer, often
wooden, gives the best performance, oddly enough, and looks wonderful.
But the real problem is the rotten script. Random explosions, inexplicable car chases, unconvincing fights. None of it very good, and most of it repeated pointlessly in multiple scenes.
Is it bad enough to be funny-good? I think it's just bad. I think the producers wanted it to be a parody of the James Bond movies, without realizing that the Bond movies were already self-parodies.
