Our Man Flint: Introducing America's Playboy Hero!

Have you ever wondered why there was never an American super spy equivalent to James Bond.  Well, in 1966 there was and his name was Derek Flint.  And of course, because this is grindhouse territory, it's exponentially campier and ludicrous than any James Bond movie ever was.  James Coburn does an admirable job as Derek Flint in this and the sequel In Like Flint but because this movie is a spy spoof more than a spy thriller, Our Man Flint feels more like an Austin Powers movie than one of the Bond films.  It's definitely worth watching just don't expect it to be on the same level as the early James Bond movies. Instead, watch it because it's a fun and somewhat silly 1960s American spy adventure.  You don't have to be drinking to enjoy Our Man Flint, but it would certainly help.

Just look at the poster art.  He makes love in 47 languages!  How could you not want to see this movie?
