"Where The Bullets Fly" is the second of three Charles Vine movies made in the 1960s based on the two I've seen so far (this one and "Someone's Stolen Our Russian Spy") I won't be in any hurry to track down the other one ("The Second Best Secret Agent In The Whole Wide World") anytime soon, even though it seems to be considered the best of the three by far. "Where The Bullets Fly" never takes off it is neither funny nor exciting, although the jaunty music score tries to convince you of both.
A map to a fortune in gold has been split into five pieces. Five different individuals have a piece of the map and some would do just about anything to get the other pieces.
Budget-wise, location-wise and production value-wise, this bargain basement spoof of the Bond films pretty much scrapes the barrel. Actually, though, John Gilling (better known for Hammer horror) directed it niftily enough and in patches even makes it quite witty.
MASTER PLAN: steal a prototype airplane. It's a rather basic, nuts-'n'-bolts take on the superspy genre - think the James Bond films of the sixties with only a quarter of the budget and no star quality - there was nothing special to justify further films.
MISS DYNAMITE is a dreadful little spaghetti western comedy which really is a struggle to watch. The problem with it is the very low budget which gives the film a slapdash look and the choppy editing makes it a bit of a headache to sit through.
British scientists have developed a new means of aircraft propulsion - a nuclear unit protected by a lightweight metal known as 'Spurium'. A gang of villains, headed by 'Angel' ( Michael Ripper ), want to steal a sample to sell to the Russians.
