WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesSixteen months before the movie's release, on June 28, 1965, the Pan Am Boeing 707 (registration: N761PA) that Jeffrey Hunter is seen leaving from during the opening credits had an engine explode just after taking off from San Francisco. The uncontained engine explosion caused a fire, a fuel tank explosion and one wing partially separated. The plane made an emergency landing at Travis Air Force Base and there were no injuries.
- PatzerJustin Power lands by helicopter on top of a Los Angeles skyscraper and proceeds to go to various offices and corridors in that building. When he finally exits, it is from what appears to be a two-story building, apparently an art gallery.

Justin Power: And what else?
Sunny: [Goes all coy, puts hands behind back] Well, Sir - I wanted you to know that, - urm, I mean that, Mr. Cane called just before you came in; he said to check in with you as soon as possible.
Justin Power: Now, Sunny, how many times have I told you that when Mr. Cane calls, you must tell me immediately
Sunny: Oh, yes Sir, I forgot .. I won't forget again ..
Justin Power: .. And Sunny ..
Sunny: [Looking hopeful, rising tone] Yes, Mr. Powers?
Justin Power: Please close the door
Sunny: [Forlorn looking, disappointed down tone] Yes, Sir.

When the film begins, you learn that the Americans have a cool device that allows agents to jump back in time to the immediate past! They're using this to battle the ever-present Communist Chinese agents who seem bent on destroying America. Eventually he and his fellow agents learn that the Chinese have smuggled in parts to a nuclear bomb. Where in the US it's going to be detonated and by whom is something Power is going to need to discover--paired up with the Hong Kong-based investigator, Kitty. Can they stop the dreaded Big Buddha (Harold Sakata)?
I didn't mind seeing Hunter's character being out-thought by the female agent, but too many times he just seemed arrogant and really dumb...too dumb to live dumb! This is a weakness of the film. While she's obviously smarter than she is, at the end, Kitty is also a complete moron. And, so was Big Buddha for that matter!! However I did like how realistic and pragmatic the Power was, as he was not above slugging a woman or nearly twisting her arm off to get the truth--which makes since considering the Dragon organization is contemplating mass murder! And, I did like Big Buddha's style-- especially when one of his subordinates has the nerve to TELL him what he should do next! Overall, it's a film that had great promise but it really needed some editing to make the characters less like caricatures. I see this as a time- passer and not much more due to the inconsistent writing. In many ways, this plays like an old movie serial than a film that expected the viewer to take it seriously.
By the way, I saw this on YouTube and the print is badly faded--with the print looking sepia hued instead of in vivid color.
