Warning: Spoilers
Superhero Flashman (aka Lord Alex Burman who seems to be a pal of Her Majesty The Queen) deals with counterfeiters, a wealthy Maharajah and villains who have stolen a serum that will make themselves invisible. Which hardly covers everything that happens. The story wanders around to little effect. Paolo Gozlino as Flashman runs around in a fancy dress costume which looks sillier every time he dons it. In support are a bland cast and Jack Ary as the comic Scotland Yard inspector Baxter is really annoying. He has the same burst of music when he always appears which is also annoying. In the film's favour it has colourful exterior locations and looks decent in 'Cromoscope' and 'Tecnostampa'. It's colourful but not that thrilling.
