Dead on Target is the third and final film in the Our Man Flint movie trilogy. The film originally aired on ABC on March 17, 1976. The TV movie was also a pilot for a possible weekly series, but it did not get good enough ratings to warrant such, and Dead On Target became the last Derek Flint movie.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

Flint was the american answer for James Bond,however never reach at their foots, even James Coburn did,Ray Danton carry on trying to,but didn't have a charisma to take advance to allow challenge 007,in this final Flint's saga the plot is quite unbelievable to start,some devices used by flint a lacking substance,all women are highly prudish,well dressed like my mother,Danton really try hard by was defeated by whose himself try overcome....l watched this picture on my parent's house in 1978 and was a real pleasure to see those wanderer years of my youth times!!By the way the official release just come out in a box a entire saga!!!Resume:First watch: 1978 / How many: 2 / Source: TV-DVD / Rating: 5.5

Bearing precious little resemblance to the hugely enjoyable "Flint" pictures outside of the name of the protagonist, this made-for-TV film really isn't half bad. Oil company executive Wendell Runsler (the always excellent Lawrence Dane) gets abducted by a liberation army group from the Middle East. Shrewd, handsome, and dashing private eye Derek Flint (a solid and credible performance by Ray Danton) is hired to find Runsler. Flint and his spunky new eager beaver partner Bonita Rogers (a winningly vibrant portrayal by the fetching Gay Rowan) hit the streets in search of Runsler. Director Joseph Scanlon, working from a reasonably engrossing (if overly talky) script by Norman Klenman, relates the story at a steady pace, stages the infrequent action set pieces with some aplomb, and spruces things up with a nice sense of sharp sarcastic humor (the tart rat-a-tat-tat banter between Flint and Rogers is pretty amusing). However, this movie does get bogged down in too much blah chitchat and could have used more lively and exciting action. That said, the cast do well with the okay material, with especially stand-out work from Sharon Acker as Runsler's traitorous business assistant Sandra Carter and Donnelly Rhodes as the smooth leader of the liberation group. Kelly Duncan's cinematography boasts plenty of nifty panoramic helicopter shots of the city. The funky chilling score hits the get-down groovy spot. A passable and watchable enough diversion.

Wow. I hadn't thought about this one in a while. I was all excited when I heard this one was coming. since the original 2 Flint films were long-time favorites. Well, Ray Danton gives it a good shot, but the movie doesn't seem to know what made the Flint films different from the Bond/Bond wannabes that infested theatres for years. Because of this, this movie imitates all the other clones, and misses the style, and whimsy of the first. Too bad, Danton was an old hand at this sort of thing, after "Secret Agent Super Dragon", and even the lead role in the french comic adaptation, "Lucky The Inscrutable", (directed by Jess Franco). The script just doesn't really work, and past a zippy opening, the film doesn't do much either. A lost opportunity, now best swept out of the way.
