Storyline

The evil crime syndicate Thanatos is bent on taking over the world, using a magnetic wave generator that will cause all metal-based machinery to grind to a halt. However, the well-known British secret agent normally assigned to such tasks isn't available, so they engage his civilian brother, Neil, to help. Neil, played by Neil Connery, is a world-class plastic surgeon, hypnotist, and lip-reader, which turn out to be precisely the skills required for thwarting Thanatos. Written by Leo L. Schwab <ewhac@best.com>

You really have to wonder how they got away with this...
19 January 2013 | by See all my reviews

This film is a complete and utter rip off of the James Bond franchise. More so than say "The Agent From H.A.R.M" and others of its ilk. No, this one has the audacity to actually have actors and actresses from the James Bond Franchise and almost makes it out like it is occurring within the same universe. To top it off, they get Sean Connery's brother to play the lead role. However, it did go by rather quickly and there were some very nice looking females in some very nice outfits to keep one distracted that for the most part this film sucked.

The film revolves around a plastic surgeon named Neil Connery...what the heck? They do not even bother changing his name, sheesh. Well an evil organization is up to no good and it is up to a plastic surgeon to save the day. Strangely Bernard Lee and Louis Maxwell appear in this one and make references to the actual Bond films. How does that work? It seems kind of inappropriate for them to be in the flick, but I guess they were not making the big bucks Connery was so a paycheck is a paycheck. Well Neil does his best to stop the bad guys, the lead being the main villain in Thunderball and the actress who played Rosa Klebb is here too. I guess they hoped people would simply think this has to be part of the Bond universe with all the people from that series in it!

As for Neil, he looks a lot like his brother. I am sure he did not have a lot of trouble getting the ladies in his youth. However, acting ability was not divided up equally as this guy may have similar eyes to Sean's, but no emotion can be seen within them. The guy is a complete bore, it is no wonder he was not in many other films other than this one. Like I said, thankfully you have a boat load of buxom beauties to look at as you try to watch this film, where the villains always find the most idiotic things to wear.

This film is another in a long line of films that were released during this time frame trying to capitalize on the very successful James Bond franchise. It just did so in a more blatant way. I give them credit for luring the actors and actresses from that series, though I also wonder what a lot of them were thinking. I kind of want to say there were a few more from the Bond franchise in this one as I recognized a couple of others, I just mentioned the ones I knew for sure. One thing about a plastic surgeon spy, once he messes you up he can restore you back the way you were!
