In this outing Helm is retired and now a photographer. However he is called back into active service, This is the very first of the four Helm movies.
An evil organization called "The Big O" has hatched a plan to start World War 3 by detonating a nuclear weapon over the USA. Helm has to go thru dozens of beautiful women and a lot of crazy situations to stop them.
Victor Buono is Tung-Tze, a crazed oriental master mind who is controlling the entire operation. This is a great introduction to the series and the plot moves along very well, and is very amusing.
The outstanding supporting cast also includes Stella Stevens, Robert Webber, Arthur O'Connell, Daliah Lavi, Nancy Kovack, James Gregory, Roger C. Carmel, Cyd Charisse, Beverly Adams, Richard Devon and Frank Gerstle.
Everyone plays their part very well, and the women are extremely beautiful, as they are in all of these films.
I recommend this as much as I do all of the Matt Helm movies. If you love 60's spy spoofs and beautiful women you cannot help but like this film. Check it out sometime.
