This is one of these films that always used to be on British tv in the 1970s and 1980s.
I like spy films and am obsessed by Berlin so I used to enjoy watching this when it was on.

I bought the dvd hoping to enjoy it again but I was disappointed.
If you watch THE IPCRESS FILE more than once there is much to enjoy,acting,locations little details you missed previously.

But watching QULLIER I felt the only things I enjoyed were SENTA BERGER and the Berlin locations.

The plot and the acting are ok but really little happens,there are no big scenes and the ending is weak.

I was also disappointed. Saw this as a kid and have always thought it one if those great Cold War spy movies. But it's actually pretty poor in many ways. I thought Segal was terrible. Guinness was fantastic though.
