Tough, stylish and of its time.
18 August 1999 | by (CARDIFF, WALES) – See all my reviews

This tough and stylish Bond pastiche from 1967 has a life all of its own and is as good a film as "DR. NO". Richard Johnson plays a suave and sophisticated version of the old 20's hero Bulldog Drummond and he gives his character a tough veneer that makes him as believable as Sean Connery when he squares up against the bad guys, the leader of which is played by the superb character actor Nigel Greene who plays the same sort of villain here that he did in the Matt Helm movie "THE WRECKING CREW". The women in this movie are sexy and aggressive and are the reason for the title,the climax takes place in the villain's lair, a medieval castle where Johnson and Greene play a taut game of death involving giant chess figures. I visited Pinewood Studios in England in 1986 and saw a couple of these huge chess figures lying in the backlot and it brought back fond memories of a film which though very much of its time would offer much pleasure to present day viewers if it were released on video.An inferior (though still enjoyable) sequel appeared the following year called " SOME GIRLS DO" and unfortunately that was the last we saw of Drummond.A pity.
