Review of Modesty Blaise (1966) by Michael B — 01 Feb 2008
As a long time fan of the MB comic strips and novels, was VERY disappointed by the movie. While the plot is faithful to Peter O'Donnell' "Gabriel Setup", the characterizations are TOTALLY off.
Monica Vitta looks like MB should look like for about 5 secs, and that's it. Like too many spy movies of the 60s, they felt they had to compete with Bond by being silly rather then serious.
