Review of Modesty Blaise (1966) by Haydon F — 16 Mar 2009
This film had been on my to-watch list for ages and now i've fianlly got around to it I was left disappointed. Its not bad - in fact its everything I expected of it - its just that sometimes its better off not knowing.
The music, clothes, decor, style - everything just looked so fuckin cool but I was expecting the level of Barbarella-epicness that never came. Not great, not terrible just bleurgh. Also I dunno what Dirk Bogarde & Terence Stamp are doing in this, maybe they had bills to pay or somethin but they really shouldnt have bothered.
Definately one for the stylistos.
