The Liquidator (1965)


MGM
Directed by Jack Cardiff
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Turner Classic Movies)

American GI Rod Taylor is hired by the British secret service as an assassin. It's and odd choice, because he abhors violence. Rod finds the money, and the girls, irresistible so takes the job anyway. He hires another hit man to carry out the killings while romancing as many sexy spies as possible. He goes to the Cote D'Azur where he gets duped into carrying out a hit on a British royal. It's a poor spoof of James Bond, complete with obnoxious theme song by Shirley Bassey.
