"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring …

Interesting how Eurospy soundtrack music is quite often deserving of a better fate than the movies they appear in...

Countdown To Doomsday Another competent Eurospy featuring George Ardisson, let down by plot holes which become bigger and more frequent as we go along and by the customary budgetary restrictions, which leads to laughable special effects during wh…

Ring Around The World aka (and IMO much better) Duel Around The World Richard Harrison returns for his third and final Eurospy, this time sporting a pair of glasses ala Harry Palmer. To me this is a solid production with a serviceable plot, …

Perhaps they should ask Sir Ringo to come up with something? Starr's idiosyncratic turns of phrase or "Ringoisms", such as "a hard day's night" and "tomorrow never knows", were used as song titles by the Beatles, particularly by Lennon. McCart…

Dune 2021 – Only A Mirage I found this latest version of Dune in many ways the most disappointing yet, with poor story-telling, and under developed, unengaging characterisation. Example, Gurney Halleck. This movie’s Gurney is completely one di…

Dale Robertson worked his way up the Hollywood Western ladder, from bit part player, to second lead in female led productions, to lead in B Westerns, until he finally made it big on television, starring in the Western series “Tales of Wells Fargo” a…

IMO the only problem I have with FYEO is the villian, Julian Glover, who I don't find charismatic enough for a Bond villain. Others must have seen something in him though, as he also played a villain in "Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade" (Wal…

Anthony Eisley starred in the private detective TV series “Hawaiian Eye”, and managed to combine that with a B (C, D, etc… all the way down to Z) movie career, which included one Eurospy. Operation Goldman (but as far as I could tell there is no …
