While watching this I had a feeling of familiarity. It had the tone of Chuck Norris's first film, Good Guys Wear Black. Like that film it featured well known performers to bolster both the lead, Adam West in this case, as well as box office. Now this is not a good film. It's undernourished visually, with at least one too many songs from Buddy Greco. Still, Adam holds his own with the stilted dialog and more complicated than it needed to be plot. Nancy Kwan while beautiful is mostly wasted in what amounts to a series of cameo appearances that does very little to push forward a crime story as it morphs into a spy thriller. Nehimiah Persoff pretty much steals every scene he's in, as West's Johhny Cain spends much of his screentime listening rather than taking action. In the end, not a bad attempt to try to shake his "Batman" persona. Another attempt, with a more explosive and perhaps personal story with the same characters might have been worth it. Perhaps even as a new TV series.
