Just about watchable
12 August 2021
Solo and Kuryakin follow a dangerous trail searching for the answer to a baffling mystery that begins with the disappearance of a key U. N. C. L. E. Agent. In Hong Kong they seek a clue from his wife and are soon caught between two enemy camps - each a threat to the future of the world ... The battle of wits between the menfromU. N. C. L. E. And THRUSH continues in the high Himalayas.

The U. N. C. L. E. Feature films are made out from episodes, and they all flow well and don't look out of place, however, How to Steal the world, looks disjointed, lacks plot clarity, the pace plods, but most of all lacks the sense of fun and humour that gave the films/series its charm. It's the weakest U. N. C. L. E. Film, though Eleanor Parker and Barry Sullivan ( has some intelligent dialogue) prep up the proceedings to a degree, and Robert Vaughn and David McCallum are at their heroic best, though they're lacking the quips, the interplay. Still, it's just about watchable with a thought-provoking idea and some good action at the end.
