1969 - Randall and Hopkirk Deceased: Vol.1 review by JD
A gem. This 1969 comedy drama will not appeal to many under 50. It is very dated, the action sequences are pitiful by today's standards, the role of women would be seen as unacceptable, and the acting a little projected, but at the time I first saw it, it was good and I when I re-watched them I felt a very strong nostalgic fondness for the wry, silly humour. Even for those who did not see them before there is nothing like this now and you might just find yourself smiling stupidly at the cine screen.
