This guy is so dumb. This movie is so long. I suppose you could take a drink every time a gotcha moment happens. That could get you quite drunk and maybe then you'd not care about how dumb it is. Strong drinks. It's fine though. Lots of neat phone calls and shots of surveillance.

Worst film in the franchise. I mean, where are Sid James’ laugh, Kenneth Williams’ innuendos, and Hattie Jacques’ stern glare?
