The MacKintosh Man (1973)


A member of British Intelligence assumes a fictitious criminal identity and allows himself to be caught, imprisoned, and freed in order to infiltrate a spy organization and expose a traitor.
 
Although produced by a crew of professionals, this spy thriller is sloppily made and the plot sounds more exciting than it actual is.

Halliwell*: "Convoluted but entertaining spy thriller with good performances and action sequences."

Maltin**1/2: "Well-made espionage thriller has only one problem: it's all been done before."
