| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzDean Martin as an action hero is a bit much. |
| User ReviewCJ CAnother childhood fave, love all the Matt Helm series films. With Ann-Margaret. |
| User ReviewGreg Wanother good actioner and one of the Matt Helm series |
| User ReviewAllan CDean 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. |
| User ReviewJeremy SDean Martin returns as Matt Helm, professional photographer and super-spy, with his 'distinguishing feature' (a drink in his hand) in tow. Plenty of innuendo, lots of goofy humor, and a hovercraft chase make this another fun outing for this series. Karl Malden is a riot as the supervillain, and Ann-Margret is very cute as the swinging young girl from the disco. Not quite as much fun as the first film, but still enjoyable. |
| User ReviewByron BThis 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. |
| User ReviewChristopher BDreadfully silly and stupid James Bond clone here. The whole Matt Helm thing seems to be based on "What if Dean Martin was James Bond? nyuk nyuk nyuk" The plot has Karl Malden trying to destroy Washington with a gamma ray, Malden has the scientist who invented it hostage, it's up to him, and Ann-Margret to stop him! But wait! Let's stop the film for 10 minutes and watch Ann-Margret dance. Yes, that's what this film does. If you want to see 60's filmmaking at it's very worst, look no further. |
