KEYWORDS:
This one is a little campy, but also a heck of a lot of fun, thanks in large part to Coburn's performance as Flint. 6.75/10.

This one is a little campy... You have a knack for understatement.

It was a terrific parody of the spy genre.

The phone’s unique ringtone was used in the “Austin Powers” movies as a tribute to the Flint films.

Hated it then hate it now...
In retrospect it was the first movie that I had any critical appreciation for, so as with everything in life it had some value.
To: henkster
Love it along with Dean Martin’s Matt Helm movies.

Coburn was the ideal actor for that type of role.

Oh yes....used to love watching those on the Friday or Saturday night late movie.
Now all we have are lame talk shows at night.

No spy car was better than Matt Helm’s Mercury Colony Park station wagon with the fully stocked wet bar.

So much fun to watch the great James Coburn in The Magnificent Seven. One cool dude who moved like a cat.

Not sure the if the link has been posted before, but for those who remember
A Gunfight(1971) with Kirk Douglas and Johnny Cash....video quality is not very good...but the movie itself was pretty good.

You know, after watching the first 25 minutes or so, I think I know who Muammar Khadafy was using as his role model.
