Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSome changes to the show's premise were made between "The Six Million Dollar Man" (1973) movie and the sequel. In the first film, Austin is described in dialogue as being a civilian, but in this film this is changed to him being an Air Force Colonel (and dialogue confirms this version of the character was a Colonel at the time he walked on the moon). Oliver Spencer (Darren McGavin) was replaced by Oscar Goldman (Richard Anderson) (a character from the original Cyborg novels) and a new actor plays Dr. Rudy Wells. In addition, the organization, for which Colonel Austin works, is now the OSI, not the OSO.
- GoofsAbout the 38 minute 49 second mark of part two, Steve Austin is confined by the bad guys to a small room, and chained to a table. Using his bionics, he breaks the chains, gets up and moves to the door. The hinges are on the right side of the door and the right hand wall is about one foot away from the door facing. He carefully removes the hinge pins, then, instead of swinging it open, or it falling toward him, he slides the door to the right for the full width of the door as if it was a pocket door or sliding glass door. He is in one room at the beginning of the scene and another room at the end.
- Quotes
Cynthia Holland: [Steve is winning at a casino] Oh, is there anything you aren't good at?
Col. Steve Austin: Well, I've never had much success at milking reindeer.
- Alternate versionsRe-edited into two episodes of "The Six Million Dollar Man" for syndication. To pad out the story, scenes were added from The Six Million Dollar Man (1973), The Six Million Dollar Man: The Solid Gold Kidnapping (1973), The Seven Million Dollar Man (1974), Return of the Robot Maker (1975), The Return of the Bionic Woman (1975) and Colossus: The Forbin Project (1970).

Featured review
a lot of goofs but still worth watching
Having seen the flick based on the novel Cyborg which I loved a lot this flick here was the second flick about Steve Austin way before the series started and moved away from the Cyborg story. The typical bionic sound is used here but still no sign of his bionic eye.
Although it moved away from Cyborg it comes closer towards the series were our six million dollar man had to solve some world problems. It looked a bit sometimes like a James Bond with superpowers and that's because he also seduces beautiful ladies (Britt Ekland) among others.
But still it's not too bad because the sentences used by Steve are sometimes funny. But where as the original movie didn't had that many goofs this one does. There is use of footage from the original flick when Steve is thinking what happened to him, strange to see because non of the actors in that footage are in this flick. But as in the original flick they used stock footage and here are a few major mistakes. In the beginning we see a blue helicopter moving towards a submarine but when the submarine is shown suddenly we got a complete other helicopter and to make it worse it also had another color. And they even used that whole sequence twice! When Steve's making his escape in the beginning we do have day combined with stock footage night scene's although it has to be day or night. Still there are other goofs but not as clear to see as the latter ones. One involves a door when he escapes after releasing himself from chains. Just see what he is doing with the hinge pins and how the door is opened.
In comes Richard Anderson who also did a part in Bionic Woman. He is a regular later in the series as Oscar Goldman. Also a regular in the series is Alan Oppenheimer as Dr. Rudy Wells. And see David McCallum as Alexi Kaslov who becomes The Invisible Man (1975-1976) still unreleased on DVD.
It's much slower than the original flick but still worth watching where you can see how the character of Steve grown. It is sometimes a bit slow especially the scene with, again, stock footage of catching a sword fish. But it did survived the time and one to see if you are a sci-fi fan or even likes action flicks from the seventies.
