Anybody Ever See Condorman?

One of my favorite childhood movies. Really bad Disney movie about an overly idealistic comic book writer who gets roped into a CIA spy defecting situation. The redeeming qualities are surprisingly kick ass car chases and boat chases with lasers and missiles, Oliver Reed screaming driving a black porsche, a machine gun walking cane, and a really hot Russian chick.

With the combination of really bad dialogue, laser boat fights, and Russian villains called the Proctovitch (sp?), this might be your new favorite movie. Did I mention the spy is defecting from the KGB? Her name is Natalia (She's Russian, of course her name is Natalia).

Just imagine Oliver Reed screaming this with a Russian dialect
Have you seen this report on this Condorman? On this man Wilkins? He is an AMATEUR, do you hear? He is NOT an agent of the CIA! He is a WRITER OF COMIC BOOKS!

Never saw the movie although I wanted to when it came out, but for some reason I had the novelization. Weird.

I watched this movie repeatedly when I was a youngster. I would like to see how it has aged.

I must have seen the trailer a million times before watching any number of movies, it seemed like it was on every VHS that I can remember from that time.

I saw the trailer so many times I can still remember the music as well as specific lines within the trailer like "He's not a member of the CIA, he is a writer of comic books!"

Never saw the movie.

It's just one of those weird things that has stuck with me over the years.
