This third 077 release from Dorado Films is an absolute joy to watch. Ken Clark has to compete with 2 gorgeous Euro actresses- 'FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE'S' Daniela Bianchi and Evelyn Stewart aka Ida Galli plus a surprise villainous appearance from Jacques Bergerac. If your a fan of Euro Horror, you will see an appearance from Mabel Karr who was magnificent in Jess Franco's horror classic 'THE DIABOLICAL DR. Z' and a cameo from the stunning Helga Line who was also in the first 077 adventure. The plot revolves around the theft of Polaris missiles from an American Naval ship but the eye candy and action sequences make you forget about that until the climax. Genre Director Alberto De Martino who touched every subject from sword and sandal, spaghetti westerns, and horror (my favorite is 'THE ANTI-CHRIST' aka 'THE TEMPTER') keeps things moving at a breakneck pace. Bianchi's character Lady Chaplin resembles a future spy classic, the Raquel Welch character 'FATHOM'. She's a master of disguise and deadly weapons expert, too bad she's on the wrong side but you will love her any way. Bianchi also teamed with De Martino in Sean Connery's brother Neil's opus 'OPERATION KID BROTHER'. Clark really gave Sean Connery a run for his money in the action department as he throws himself in the role of Dick Malloy with visual aplomb in the continuous fight scenes and unbelievable set pieces coming his way. Although I will always prefer the first 077 adventure 'MISSION BLOODY MARY', this one is neck and neck in the entertainment department and highly recommended. With a atmospheric Bondian music score by Bruno Nicolai and a crisp colorful transfer(alas, not widescreen), Dorado Films delivers the goods once again.
