Dimension 5
Just finished "Dimension 5" released by United Pictures Corporation - a child company of Paramount - back in 1966.
Curiously, despite being made in 1966, "Dimension 5" is a far superior movie than Christopher Nolan's "Tennet" - which also dealt with time traveling agents and counter-agents. It also has strong connections to the original Star Trek series with the leads Jeffrey Hunter and France Nuyen.
I couldn't help thinking that "Dimension 5" was originally written as a pilot for a proposed television science fiction adventure/spy program. It does have that feel, along with having a strong nod to "The Avengers" and Steed and Mrs. Peel, although Ki Ti for more ruthless and kills when needed - and she's one of the good guys!
Working for an mysterious intelligence agency, agent Justin Power, no relation to Austin Powers, is in a race against time to prevent the destruction of Los Angeles in three weeks by a hydrogen bomb. by a group of Chinese terrorists who want all American military out of Asia. Teaming up with Ki Ti, also known as Kitty, the two must travel three weeks into the future to prevent the hydrogen bomb from being assembled.
It would have been interesting to see this concept as a weekly television series,or at least a sequel.
Strongly Recommended!
Five Stars.
