(1973) The Doll Squad.
ACTION/ ADVENTURE.
The low budget variation of "The Mod Squad", "On Her Majesty's Service" and "Goldfinger" starring Francine York as CIA operative, Sabrina Kincaid ordered by Victor Connelly(Anthony Eisley) working for Senator Stockwell (John Carter) to round up a female squad of women who used to work for the Space flight security program after witnessing an explosion from a standard rocket mission. As it turns out, the person who blew up the rocket while on air used to be an ex of Sabrina, by the name of Eamon O'Reilly (Michael Ansara) who now resides on an island near Venezuela with intentions to spread a virus throughout the world with the only people vaccinated are the selected people who're sending it out.
I can always tolerate lousy acting if it's supposed to be an action film, but if the action scenes are not executed very well, then there's nothing else to look forward to except to look at the girls standing pretty- even the explosions looked fake which would have looked better if they were in black and white since that was how movies used to do it when they didn't have CGI. Although, there's one interesting thing about this film which may not be much, is that some of the music score almost sounds similar to John Woo's film "Hardboiled" because of the amount of hand drums being used.
2 out 4 of stars.
