Disappointing
Given the pedigree of this film, one would expect much more of it. Oddball casting -- Burl Ives as a German doctor?Maureen O'Hara as a strangely accentless English secretary?Ernie Kovacs as a brutal Cuban police official? -- is a distraction, as is the odd juxtaposition of tone.Ostensibly a "spoof" of spy thrillers, the film never achieves a consistent comic tone.Unfortunately, it also fails to succeed as a thriller.
