I loved most of this movie. It's loaded with beautiful mid-century pulp-book-cover-illustration style, the score is crazy fun, and of course Sean Connery is cool. Unfortunately, it's also riddled with racism. And the plot starts to fall apart in the last 15 minutes or so. For instance, why does a tube that carries large amounts of water lead to the lobby? And why does no one care that almost all of the bad guys got away?
