Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen Flint 'relaxes' (suspending his body supported only by two chairs: one under his head and one under his heels - the rest, with no support), it was not a special effects shot; James Coburn was able to do so, and it was incorporated into the script.
- GoofsWhen Hans Gruber attempts to kill Flint, his pistol has a silencer on it and is quiet. Moments later, when Flint wishes to empty out the cafe before the bomb goes off, he fires the pistol with the silencer still on, but this time it is loud.
- Quotes
Derek Flint: Say, why does that eagle attack me?
Workman: He's been trained to recognize and attack Americans.
Derek Flint: Anti-American eagle. It's diabolical.
- Alternate versionsUK video and DVD versions are cut by 26 seconds. A scene with Flint using a mains socket to resuscitate an unconscious guard has been almost totally removed.

Featured review
James Coburn is just terrific as super spy Derek Flint!
If you approach this movie thinking it's going to be a proto-Austin Powers you might be in for a disappointment. Sure, it's a James Bond spoof, but nowhere near as broad as you might expect. The Bond movies were becoming increasingly self parodic by the late 60s anyway, so there's not all THAT much difference between this and say 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service', except this is more entertaining than just about any post-Connery Bond in my opinion. James Coburn is just terrific as super spy Derek Flint, a role he was born to play. I can't say this is his best performance acting wise, but his most enjoyable role? Could be. The More you dig Coburn the more you'll enjoy the movie as let's face it, the plot is pretty thin, about some maverick scientists controlling the world's weather. But hey, it sure does LOOK great, and Gila Golan ('The Valley Of The Gwangi') makes a very sexy co-star. Plus you have respected character actor Lee J. Cobb, and if you keep your eyes open James Brolin, and even Russ Meyer babe Tura Satana in the supporting cast. Cool fun for 1960s buffs.
