CheerupSilver Very Cool!!!

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Jallee55 I was looking at another post. Saw Wagner's name and suddenly remembered this movie. And here I thought I was the only one. This came out in 1968. So I probable saw if between then and 1973 when I went to college. That is forty years! And I can still remember scenes from it. Compiling the dossier on the people on the yacht. Wagner leaving on the helicopter. His humiliations by Peter Lawford.So why does this film stick with people? It is fun and kinda cool. Wagner doesn't start out on top. But eventually ends up their. Great locations. I would certainly pick it up. BTW-I saw Robert Wagners name when doing research on Clark Gable. Clark Gable's golf caddy at one time was------Robert Wagner. Small town Hollywood.

Rickee A mediocre and somewhat tame thriller. Jack Washington a lower class dropout, just out of the army, is working as a bartender in Paris. He runs into an old flame. Five years before, he spend 4 days with her and her rich parents. Her father, Ned Pine, systematically humiliated him because he thought Jack was not socially prominent enough for his daughter. She has married and divorced and invites Jack to spend 10 days with her family on their yacht. Jack agrees in hopes of beating her father at some sport, any sport will do. But her father beats him at everything all over again. Jack notices that Pine sometimes gets notes and phone calls from someone he is obviously afraid of. Intrigued, Jack begins compiling a dossier on Pine and his associates. None of them seem to notice this, which is one of the unbelievable parts of this movie, since he walks around the yacht writing in his notebook in plain sight. Near the end, Pine arranges to have Jack killed, but Jack escapes. At the end, he is telling his story to a man that he comes to realize is the very man that Pine was afraid of and who is an even bigger and meaner criminal than Pine. I won't say how it ends, but the ending is ridiculous and makes no sense. Nor does it tie into the main plot involving Pine. Nearly everyone in this is miscast. The handsome and aristocratic Wagner is cast as a loser bartender and he cannot play the character believably. Moreover, the Jill St John character is so vapid and mercenary, its a mystery what he sees in her. But the movie is really ruined by the ending which makes no sense and is entirely unconnected with the rest of the plot.

henry-schwarz-1 I am looking for a copy of the 1967 TV movie called "How I Spent My Summer Vacation" staring Robert Wagner. Without this movie my video collection is one taco short of a combination plate.Does anyone know where I can obtain a copy of this movie" Or, should I give up eating Mexican food? Movie is outstanding. It seems I must write 10 lines of text for this message to be accepted for posting. So, let's see. This movie is a great adventure movie staring Robert Wagner. Although competitive by nature, Wagner's character always seems to come in second place and decides to make up a new game wherein he completes with Jill St. John's father in an effort to uncover how this man makes his money, which Wagner believes to be dishonest money. Wagner wins.Henry

clclemmer I saw this movie as a teenager and have always hoped it would be released on VHS or DVD. I remembered it however as a movie, not as a made for TV movie. Robert Wagner and Jill St. John were quite young and this movie I believe was quite close to the beginning of their careers. Peter Lawford and Walter Pigeon were also in their prime. One of the other strengths of this movie was that the plot always left you guessing right to the very end, which was very different from most of the plots of the time, or now for that matter! Of all the movies I've seen over the years, this is one of the few of which I've always wanted a copy. I still hope that one of these days it will be released, there certainly have been enough other movies released that couldn't hold a candle to this one!
