Title: Ring Around the World (1966)
Post by: lester1/2jr on December 06, 2008, 09:55:22 AM
      On a double feature DVD with Fred Olen Ray's "Terminal Force" which I didn't see.  This is a cheap not too exciting but somehow watchable  MST3K style B movie.   You can practicaly hear the bots chiming in with gags.   It's a james Bond rip off with american Richard Harrison,  who with his coke bottle glasses could be named "secret agent super dork", chasing some crooks through Italy and then hong Kong.

               The suspense and drama are lacking and it's no surprise it's as obscure as it is.   It's a pretty typical Italian film experience:  pretty girls, highly styelized  fashions, great soundtrack and percunctory directing, writing and acting.  This is the type of thing you'd have on dvd and watch all the time knowing it's not that good but enjoying it anyway due to harrisons ridiculous face, the colorful locations and cool bond / international playboy overall feel.
