After a new radioactive metal has been stolen secret agent "Martin Stevens" (Roger Browne) is assigned the mission to recover it. The problem is that the metal has been melted down and made into a camera lens which was then accidentally purchased by a tourist who has subsequently gone to Cairo. Needing information he comes across a female operative named "Faddja" (Rosalba Neri) who is working for the other side who inadvertently points him in the right direction. It's then that he teams up with a female agent by the name of "Denise" (Fabienne Dali) and together they attempt to track down the mysterious tourist as he visits one exotic site after another while at the same time having to contend with Russian agents who want this new metal as much as he does. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was an okay James Bond clone which suffered somewhat due to poor character development and the fact that it jumped too quickly at times from one scene to another without sufficient preparation. It also didn't help matters that the script was rather bland as well. In any case, while certainly not a great spy film by any means, I suppose it was adequate for the time spent and I have rated it accordingly. Average.
