Altogether not a bad action thriller if you don't mind wading through all the filler spots including boat, car and foot chases, underwater mining sequences and a meaningless ship search for a supposed murderer. Thirty some plus years ago this would have played like a fantasy with it's plot involving a clandestine business group buying up two hundred tons of yellow cake uranium. Today, who knows?
Fabio Testi and Assaf Dayan portray a couple of hunky secret agents on the trail of the deadly cache, taking them to various scenic locales in Europe, among them Amsterdam and Milan. Janet Agren shows up for the first half of the film as a love interest for Testi's Renzo, and if there's a twist moment in the picture it's what happens to her character about midway through.
Although we're set up for a grand show with all those explosives planted on the Scheersburg, it comes to naught when the good guys make the save at the last moment. My question is, if the boss handing out assignments to Renzo and Dan (Dayan) wasn't too concerned about blowing up the ship with just Renzo on board, why did it matter if Dan went looking for him - the stakes were the same. Oh, and there's a character named Ulrich in the cast whose real name makes me wonder why he didn't change it for professional reasons. Seriously, you have to look it up.
