646f9e108c The criminal organization THRUSH steals the A-bomb H957 and demands $350,000,000 to be delivered within 72 hours by their former antagonist Solo. So U.N.C.L.E. has to reactivate the super agents Solo and Kuryakin after they were 15 years out of business. Equipped in the usual 007 fashion they start to seek the villains. When THRUSH steals a nuclear weapon and demands a ransom delivered by Napoleon Solo, UNCLE recalls him and his partner to duty. This movie was clearly made for Television and the copy I got looked like it was a &quot;bootleg&quot; from China or something. The focus was terrible and the color saturation was gone totally. The company who released this particular DVD was New Star Video. Avoid getting a copy of this from this company, The quality is TERRIBLE.<br/><br/>As for the plot, it was weak and very unlikely. There is a scene at the end where there are 20-25 THRUSH agent lying dead in close proximity to each other and the remainder of the UNCLE contingent just jog on by with none of them even hurt. The believability of this film is low and although Robert Vaughn and David McCullum and Patrick McNee carry the film, it is still very weak and there are too many &quot;I&#39;m Sure, like their gonna do that!!&quot; moments to it. Perhaps I am seeing it through &quot;adult&quot; eyes after seeing the original seriesa small kid (8-10). Kids will like this but adults will see through it totally and may not enjoy itmucha pre-teen or teenager would. Worth a shot if there is nothing else to watch.<br/><br/>5 out of 10… Reunion TV-movies based on old series rarely capture the spirit of the original, but Return of the Man from Uncle taps into the campiness of the seriesif it never was off the air. The leads have fun acknowledging their age, and the whole thing neatly turns into a parody of spy films without becoming a parody of itself. I rated it a &quot;9&quot; not because it is great art but because compared to all other TV reunion movies it is head and shoulders above the rest!
