Synopsis

English officer Sebastian Oldsmith (Roger Moore) and Irish-American adventurer Coronel Flynn Patrick O'Flynn (Lee Marvin) seek to blow up a German battleship out for repairs in East Africa before the outbreak of WWI. There's also some intrigue about ivory smuggling. From the novel by Wilbur Smith and based on an actual incident, but that doesn't make the comedy adventure any more palatable. Marvin's hamming is ludicrous, Moore is unusually wooden, and the big budget permits any number of fairly pointless action-oriented excursions and explosions.
