THE ULTIMATE SPOOF, 22 July 1999
Author: ALAN MOUNT from cardiff, wales

When "FLINT" first opened in 1966 much was made of the hero's gadgets,particularly his multi purpose cigarette lighter but the truth of the matter was that Flint needed no gadgets,he was a self made superman,able to master any art ( aesthetic or martial) that he wanted and James Coburn played him to perfection.Flint was introduced in the movie in a terrific fashion,displaying his fighting abilities against karate experts and fencers in a style that made him seem unique and skilful in a way not seen before in movies where secret agents usually felled their enemies with a firm sock to the jaw. So did Flint;but he delivered his with his feet. Any movie that climaxes with the hero alone on his adversary's secret island base using wits and kicks to fight his way out and destroy it is okay by me and GALAXY island is straight out of a 60's psychedelic nightmare with flashing lights,disintegration machines and even a trained anti-American eagle.All this and the disco from hell as well.Unlike the Bonds of the era,the girls in "FLINT" are a bit antiseptic and the career of the leading lady(Gila Golan)went nowhere after this.The villains are nothing special either but this doesn't matter; Coburn is the movie.He strides lithely through it with a catlike grace and cheshire cat grin knowing full well that he can overcome any obstacle put in his way.What a man! What a movie! It's a shame that after just one poor sequel,Flint retired to that great penthouse in the sky. Maybe he's ripe for a remake.
