Ken Russell's big budget film is an adaptation of Len Deighton's novel, a sequel to 'The Ipcress File' in which Michael Caine reprises his role as bespectacled British Intelligence officer Harry Palmer, this time stumbling into a plot to overthrow the Soviet Communist regime using a supercomputer. But who is working for whom and will Harry live long enough to find out?

Billion Dollar Brain review by malya shepard
A real 60's techno freak
(0) of (0) members found this review helpful.
One of the great things about being over 60 is enjoying films of your youth through the wrong end of a telescope... and seeing whether they still hold their focus. Billion Dollar Brain has every trick you would expect from Ken Russell - as pacey and full as the early Bond movies. Sexy Michael Caine in a fur hat takes himself not at all seriously - Finland under the snow could well be a take-off of David Lean's Zhivago. Quaint 30 year old visions of what an all powerful computer looks like will give techno freaks a belly laugh - and there is a marvellous scene where a crazy American warlord runs amuck. (Goodness, we dont have those any more, do we?!?)
