Gimmicks dominate characters. One has the constant sensation of being on a movie set. Where Bond carries a pen-sized aqua lung, Miss Andress calls a crane to kidnap the beach-house Mastroianni is sleeping in. The gimmick is bigger than she is. The whole set, the whole movie, become one tiresome gimmick...
