05/06/2022 Sure if you put this up against today's standards, it's not going to do very well. But if you take it as it is, it's kindof a ridiculously marvellous slice of 60s nostalgia. See more 08/12/2015 another good actioner and one of the Matt Helm series See more 06/07/2015 This second of four Matt Helm spy comedies may be an American film with a European flare, but it is more a basis for the Austin Powers franchise than any other 60s espionage adventure. Dean Martin sings a few songs on the soundtrack, which is a little disorienting as he appears on screen as a non-singing character. Martin's wise-cracking, womanizing, yet aging agent Matt Helm sets off on an impossibly zany case with flower child Suzie (Ann-Margret), the niece of a scientist who is being forced to serve a villain (Karl Malden) mad for world power. There is a definite generation gap expressed, yet this flick is so impossibly psychedelic and dated with cheesy effects and dialog that it is no wonder that James Bond is still remembered and Matt Helm has been filed away as a novelty. See more 03/29/2014 Another childhood fave, love all the Matt Helm series films. With Ann-Margaret. See more 06/10/2013 Dean Martin is back as secret agent Matt Helm! This time he is up against the diabolical Karl Malden, who is, of course, bent on world domination. This swingin' 60s James Bond parody predates Austin Powers by about 30 years and does it just about as well. However, with this film you enjoyment of it will greatly depend upon how much you enjoy Dean Martin, who I enjoy quite a bit. See more 06/07/2013 Half the fun is watching for the little digs - whether they be about dating, society, or the rat-pack. Otherwise it's only a Bond flick with a tenth the budget.
