Quick Summary

The film Murderers' Row, released in 1966, is part of the Matt Helm spy movie series, starring Dean Martin as the titular character. Martin portrayed Helm, a former secret agent who works as a photographer but is drawn back into espionage. In Murderers' Row, Helm is tasked with investigating Tung-Tze, the leader of a criminal organization called Big O, who plans to start World War III.12

The film series aimed to emulate the success of James Bond films but did not achieve the same level of popularity. Murderers' Row is noted for its sexism, with many female characters depicted as unintelligent. Henry Levin directed both Murderers' Row and another Matt Helm film, The Ambushers.13
