CGiii Comment
Camp as tits and hugely entertaining...
Roger Moore as a woman-hating, cat cuddling, embroidering mercenary (with some exceptional one-liners).
It's nonsense really...but, Moore plays it to perfection - hysterical.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...

Ffolkes (Roger Moore) a wealthy mysogynistic eccentric, volunteers to send his crack team of soldiers in to stop the terrorists.
