Much better than I expected. Once you get past the unusual casting choice of Roger Moore as a Mafioso's Anglo-Sicilian lawyer (not easy to do, since Moore in 1976 was at or near the height of his James Bond fame at the time), it becomes an engaging crime-action flick. Good cinematography, with nice use of location shooting in San Francisco, Sausalito, and Campania (Italy). Ample car chases - one of which is cleverly played as a parody of the famous car chase in
Bullitt
(1968)… it definitely had me LOLing. Stacy Keach rounds things out as Moore's rather goofy sidekick, providing ample comic relief throughout. Moore's character also fires off plenty of dry quips quite reminiscent of the little zingers he routinely dropped in his Bond movies. It's a bit of a walk down memory lane, too: now 50 years old, you'll get a kick out of the cars, the clothes, the technology (or lack thereof… e.g., Roger Moore dialing a rotary telephone!). See it if you want something a little different.

I saw this when it came out and have never felt like seeing it again. Reading all the negative reviews here reminds me of how I felt when I saw it.
