The action takes place in an Arabic country, with not too much exotic atmosphere, as you could expect instead of the LA jazzy one, and also plenty of extras for some street sequences. Much intrigue too and nothing of a real noir scheme, as we are used to in many other episodes of this series. Expect an adventure yarn as we saw in some big screen features in the past: ISTAMBOUL, TANGIERS, CALCUTTA, etc...With of course some criminal elements, where our lead has to face rotten military officers who plan a coup, gun smugglers, dictators...
That's not my cup of tea. The story is rather useless, except maybe to entertain bored audiences who probably fill the emptiness of their lifetime.
Why not?
