My notes

First viewing. Blind buy based on the absurd premise.

Apparently not my first viewing, as I must have watched this one in the waning days of 2024 before losing my living room.

It’s a bad film, through and through. Another remix of the Bond/Super Spy idea, this time with a burglar. Hokey and not really worth a viewing unless engaging in intentionally bad films.

Watched Jan. 20, 2025 via UHD — rated 3.5/10
