Surgeon Guy Rolfe is stuck into an ambulance and taken to a mysterious location to operate on a mysterious patient. Then he is clunked on the head, wakes up at home. As the bodies start piling up wherever he is to be found, he comes to realize that an important industrialist is being kidnapped. Trouble is that Scotland Yard won't believe him. For some reason they think he has something to do with the deaths.
This movie is a well-acted, exciting, thoroughly muddled thriller with a bunch of loose threads. Officials give false names for no reason, the police leave important witnesses unguarded and let a surgeon indulge in the rough-and-tumble while they stand around gawping, for no reason I could see except to increase the fog. Even the movie's title refers to the randomly-named "Operation" the government institutes when they realize that the industrialist is missing.
It's pretty good for a thorough piece of shoddy nonsense. I was having a fine time until the Mysterious Foreign Woman (Lisa Daniely) is running away from the bad guys. They were so slow about that sequence, it gave me time to review and count the unpatched holes.
