★★★★ · Very Entertaining! · otisfiend · 2012-07-22

I liked it.Film is complete and in good condition. Good plot. Interesting location during interesting time during U.S. occupation of Japan and Korean War. Exotic female. Decent acting. I had the opportunity to live in Tokyo for a year several years after this was filmed. The film depicts Tokyo as I remember it. I would have given it 5 stars if subtitles were provided for the Japanese dialog. Film was still easy to follow. Just a good entertaining spy movie.

★★★★ · Liked the movie · Kodachrome · 2012-09-09

I hate the new player though. It crashed several times. The old one would not load. The movie was better than I had expected it to be. 4 stars for the movie. 1 star for the new player.
