Our Man in Havana (1959)
Disappointing
8 January 2001 - 23 out of 44 users found this review helpful.
Given the pedigree of this film, one would expect much more of it. Oddball casting -- Burl Ives as a German doctor? Maureen O'Hara as a strangely accentless English secretary? Ernie Kovacs as a brutal Cuban police official? -- is a distraction, as is the odd juxtaposition of tone.
Ostensibly a "spoof" of spy thrillers, the film never achieves a consistent comic tone. Unfortunately, it also fails to succeed as a thriller.
