I love Flint.......2007-03-08

America's answer to 007...James Coburn makes a great secret agent. I grew up with these movies. I am glad they are on DVD

Flint is the Man.......2007-01-29

James Coburn as Derek Flint is as cool as the other side of the pillow. In any situation Flint will prevail with his all encompassing knowledge of seemingly any subject. "The Catalog of Cool" rated these as the coolest movies ever made!
I am extremely happy to have them both in a set on DVD. You will not be dissapointed.

There was bound to be a Flint sequel, and this one delivers the same kind of zany fun as its predecessor, Our Man Flint. Flint is recruited once again by Lee J. Cobb to be the government's top secret agent, this time to solve a mishap involving the President. Turns out, the Chief Executive has been replaced by an evil duplicate. The new plan for world domination involves feminine aggression, and Flint, with his overpowering charisma, is just the man to turn the hostile forces around. In Like Flint is still over the top, but some of the novelty has worn off, and it doesn't have quite the same edge as the original. Even Jerry Goldsmith's score is a bit more subdued. But the film still has James Coburn and that funny phone. --Bill Desowitz

[Three and-a-half stars] Ode to James Coburn, (not Jared Flint!).......2006-06-24

A very fine sequel, which almost surpasses
the original James Coburn Jame Bond parody,
Our Man Flint. Somewhat along the lines of
'Wrongway Goldfarb, Please Phone Home...'
Sucky beginning slightly hurts the proceed-
ings and keeps it from being as good (or be-
tter!) than first installment! Coburn was
outstanding in these two films. Lee J. Cobb
is back for round two also, but not seen as
much!

cooler than bond he's coburn, james coburn part 2.......2006-01-22

in like flint is the follow-up to our man flint, the 5 star spoof of the 60's bond crase and if not as fine as the first it still is one great little spy spoof and james coburn as in the first is the whole show here. his charm and ease of manner makes his flint one who could out do bond i believe. this time he's up against rich women out to take over the world. sure it's sexist and that hurts it some but hay it's james coburn sit back and see where austin powers really came from.

Such an archetypical 60s film...........2005-12-13

There's no way this movie could typify the sixties any more. From the playful flute-driven theme song, the glitzy cinematography, and Yvonne Craig's go-go dancing, (not to mention the OBVIOUS clapboard sets,) this is soooo "Sixties" it isn't funny! But it IS!

James Coburn is still a "very funny fellow", to quote Brendan Gill, in this second Flint outing. Though it doesn't have the feeling of serendipity that the first one had, where you thought you discovered, finally, a good rival for 007 in pop culture, it still does the espionage thing in typical Yank fashion, sans the pretension or affectations of an Ian Fleming novel. The two Flint movies were meant to be fun, and I will always wonder why in blazes 20th Century Fox didn't add at LEAST two other episodes to this franchise!

Of course, a good part of the appeal of Derek Flint is the way Coburn portrays him, as a true renaissance man to end all renaissance men, but a MODEST one! Flint doesn't act cocky unless he's in the company of a truly deluded bad guy, like Rodney or Sebastian (the actor in this movie), or General Carter. He's always a perfect gentleman around Cramden, his girlfriends, any OTHER ladies he encounters or military or political officials of obvious high standing. I've often thought to myself that the one factor of true genius is not to be self-conscious of your genius....that modesty is the one true harbinger of a truly inspired mind, and Coburn's portrayal of Flint bolsters that.

Anyway, the plot is simple: Cheeky cabal of ladies, fed up with the way men have been running the world, get together to embark on running it "better", or so they think, but still have to use MEN to make their dream come true, and it is this aspect of their plan that does them in. Once they get a view from the mountaintop, the two men that they have trusted turn on them and it's up to Flint to humble the overreaching females and take down the power-crazed men, and this he does with aplomb, at the behest of Floyd Cramden, played again by Lee J. Cobb. Cramden appears in drag in a few scenes in this film, trying to infiltrate "Fabulous Face", the Caribbean headquarters of the megalomaniac women, placed, oddly enough, in the Virgin Islands! Because of damaging photos taken of him in bed with what appears to be a prostitute, Cramden loses his position at Z.O.W.I.E., and has to recruit Flint to get to the bottom of it all. In one scene in this movie, as it's revealed that the ladies have placed an actor in the White House, impersonating the real President, Flint sits back and says: "An actor...as PRESIDENT!?" I'm sure every person who's ever seen both Flint movies wants Coburn to say, "It's diabolical!!" right afterward.

Fans of "Dune" will like the prescient use of sound as a weapon in this film, and everyone will like the Jerry Goldsmith score. However, one scene, where Flint is in Moscow dancing ballet with Yvonne Craig, and takes an improbable, slowish leap up to a balcony, might make the goings-on look a bit hokey, breaking whatever spell the movie might have had on you. People who thought "Day of the Dolphin" would ruin Mike Nichols' career, (and it almost did!) might wince at Flint speaking to one of the finny mammals in its own "language", compiling, believe it or not, a "Dolphin Dictionary".

However, like I said, Flint was 007's only true rival, and perhaps 20th Century should have given him a few more chances to impress us even more. I mean, this role pretty much did make Coburn the star he turned into....I would much rather have seen another "Flint" movie rather than "Harry In Your Pocket".

Damn shame, really....

Watch Our Man Flint instead...........2005-01-03

I wanted to rent In Like Flint because it is mentioned in the Austin Powers movie. Reviews on amazon said that Our Man Flint was better, so I checked that one out first. I actually liked Our Man Flint. It was NOT what I expected though. People make it out to be a mockery or parody of james bond films, but I didn't think it was. When I think of parody, I think of Airplane or Naked Gun movies. This was NOTHING like those. Sure, there were a couple of funny things, like the name of the secret government agency was W.O.W.I.E. and he had his super tool that had 80 secret functions (of which you never saw him use more than maybe 6). Our Man Flint had an interesting story, and you honestly wanted to know what happened next. Even though it's a fairly old movie, it didn't seem as dated as it could have been. I liked Our Man Flint and I would watch it again.

BUS, In Like Flint? What a bad movie. It had hardly anything of the interesting story that Our Man Flint had. In fact, I didn't even watch the ending, because I DIDN'T CARE WHAT HAPPENED! I should have known, In Like Flint got some pretty bad reviews here, but after watching Our Man Flint and enjoying it, I figured, how bad could it be? Well, it was pretty darn bad! Boring AND un-interesting. I would NOT reccomend In Like Flint, but I would reccomend Our Man Flint. After watching Our Man Flint, you'll laugh even harder when watching Austin Powers...especially when his super secret phone rings!

Another Great Spy Movie Entry but Bare DVD.......2004-08-20

Less technicolor and more monochromatic than its predecessor, "In Like Flint" still uses broad strokes to great advantage in poking fun at the Bond films. The indomitable Derek Flint returns to save the world, this time from a bevy of beauties who simultaneously raise the ire of the world's women while replacing powerful males with surgically-altered substitutes (leading to, perhaps, the most prescient line of dialogue in any 1960s film--upon discovering that the man in the White House is not who he seems to be, a disbelieving Flint says, "An actor as president?"). That is, until a renegade ZOWIE general (Steve Inhat) decides it's his turn to take the reins of power. The delightful Lee J. Cobb is back as Flint's curmudgeonly boss, Cramden, as are the secret agent's posse of female admirers, and TV's Batgirl, Yvonne Craig, even shows up as a Russian ballerina. "In Like Flint" feels more grown up than the previous film, partly because the lighting and cinematography are more stark and partly because the humor is sometimes more rooted in satire than parody. Notions like the Red Scare being a feint to the very real dangers of corruption from within and the beauty industry actually having our worst interests in mind--and charging a premium for them--are slipped in with more obvious gags involving oversized eyebrows, cross-dressing, and the bouncing sing-a-long ball. Only the crankiest among us are likely to find the juvenile sexism of either Flint film worth comment, as it's a staple of the genre, meaning that the biggest weakness here is the same as the earlier effort: a no-frills DVD.
