🎬 MovieFinder's Take
This third Jerry Cotton adventure blends spy thriller tension with gritty 60s crime aesthetics. Tight editing propels the chase sequences forward, though character development takes a backseat to plot mechanics.
What lingers after the credits is the palpable suspense of a ticking clock, where the sweltering city itself becomes a powder keg. The practical stunts and straightforward detective work offer solid entertainment despite dated effects. — MovieFinder Editorial
