| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzOne of the worse spy movies I've ever seen. |
| User ReviewBrian BIt's a cute little movie; harmless and homogenized. Loved Darren McGavin and Rosalind Russell's performances. I know I'm in the minority here, it's enjoyable family fare. |

The result is B-movie-ish, but many B-movies are entertaining, and this is one of them. You really want to see how Mrs. P. makes out. The director, Leslie Martinson, also did the campy 1966 Batman movie---so that should give you an idea of the tone. |

| User ReviewSunil JHas a lot of potential but just a mess of a movie. A perfect movie to be remade with a better script. |
