Quite a charming little bond spoof, the action sequences are exactly what you might expect from a Shonteff effort and utterly
ridiculous. Needless to say 'Bind' .... yes 'Bind, Charles Bind gets laid regularly, wins every fight and is indestructible. Not exactly a laugh out loud affair but enough smiles to make it an enjoyable watch. Cool soundtrack and the cars are mint.
