3.0 out of 5 stars Believe In The Power Of Invisibility, April 14, 2003
By "rtoh" (Windsor, South carolina) - See all my reviews
When you watch this film, take it for what it is worth and realize that at the time of its production a lot of campy pictures were made and some much worse than this. You have to be a big admirer of Ben Murphy's (and I am) and a child of a certain era to appreciate a government agent with the power to disappear who looks like he would be equally at home on the cover of G.Q. The friendship ol' "Buffalo" and "Lazy Rider"(Ben Murphy) develop is fun to watch. When Buffalo is about to save Lazy Rider as his truck is a runaway, he informes Lazy Rider that he is carrying a cargo of eggs. Lazy Rider, approaching Buffalo's back door at 67 miles an hour and about ready to make contact says, "I sure hope you like 'em scrambled." Ben Murphy sure knows how to deliver a line!

2.0 out of 5 stars Judge it on it's own merits, November 17, 2006
By MST3K collector (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews
And it still isn't as good as the MST3K version. Anyway, as someone else noted it's not the same cut that MST3K has. Abby isn't seen in flashback in the 2nd half, Buffalo Bill's song at the Pit Stop is cut out and there's a whole backstory to Sam's invisibility at the beginning. But there is more of "the elusive Robert Denby". My guess is MST3K was a cut for TV (where you have to clear time for commercials and clarify things quickly) and the commercial release may have been a cut for foreign markets to introduce the show or pass it off as an actual theatrical production.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ben Murphy lights up the screen!!!, June 1, 2001
By Sean O'Brien (Rohnert Park, CA United States) - See all my reviews
The story line and acting alone make this film Oscar worthy. Ben Murphy IS the man! Riding with death is a must see film! This action packed secret agent movie will blow your mind! One of the best 70's movies EVER!

Maybe it's because I'm a Ben Murphy fan that I actually enjoyed this movie. OK, it wasn't brilliant but if you just sit down and allow yourself to relax I think you'll find it... Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Horrible
The really bad thing about this film is a surprise. It's not the acting, though that's atrocious. It isn't the writing, even though that is worse than the acting. Read more
