Code Name: Jaguar (1965)


Directed by Maurice Labro
My rating: 2 stars out of 4

"Superspy" Ray Danton is sent to a military base in Spain to uncover Russians who are secretly transmitting images. He gets help and a little romance from sexy sidekick Pascale Petit and local siren Helga Sommerfeld. It tries hard to imitate James Bond, even throwing in an overt reference to From Russia with Love, but gets bogged down somewhere in the middle with an overly complicated plot. Colorful if predictable thriller in the crowded 60s spy film genre started by the success of James Bond.
