Perry Grant, agente di ferro

AGENT PERRY GRANT is another Italian Bond knock-off and quite unremarkable as this genre goes. I managed to catch it on Youtube in the form of a very poor print. The story directly copies the Connery flicks, moving from random womanising and some light hotel fisticuffs to an adventure in the villain's lair at the climax. It's quite underwhelming throughout and the ending feels rushed, although the Italian actresses are always glamorous.

Above the opening credits there is a song with a guitar that sounds awful, but the bass guitar and the saxophone sound very cool. Which gives you some hope. Then the beach, the bathing suit babe, the scene clearly inspired by Ursula Andress 4 years before in "Dr. No". The music continues until the end of the film as if it were a Western. But it's not, the film is meant to be a story with secret and vicious agents. But it's just a chaotic action through Rome, with some fake banknotes, and with some very poorly executed fight scenes. The two women should be sexy, but they're not. One is liquidated, we get rid of her, anyway she was extremely ridiculous, as a character, as an actress, as all the other actors, as the whole movie. After an hour of total chaos and déjà-vu after déjà-vu, towards the end, the action moves, as in many other Bond and Eurospy films, to an underground base, where the main hero, who somewhat resembles a young Sean Connery, is now a prisoner. After being shown the secret of the secret weapon, as in most Bond movies, he will kill them all, destroy the base and save the girl (Marilu Tolo). Typical, right? Zero stars!
