Review of The Ipcress File (1965) by Michael Wilmington for Los Angeles Times — 01 Sep 2002
The Ipcress File was reasonably entertaining while I was watching it, but after it was over I felt I'd been had... Among the tiresome directorial tricks in The Ipcress File is the repetitively off-angle anti-climax with the heavies feeding parking meters, hibernating in libraries, and plotting at band concerts.
Nothing happens most of the time, and this is supposed to be funny and ironic.
