James Bond’s civilian brother takes on world domination with hypnosis, gadgets, and a wink.
OPERATION KID BROTHER
Such close friends... such beautiful enemies...
The civilian brother of Britain's best spy must use his skills in plastic surgery, hypnotism and lip-reading to stop a crime syndicate's bid for world domination.
Sean wasn’t available, but his brother and half the Bond cast were—what could possibly go wrong?
If you ever wondered what would happen if James Bond’s brother moonlighted as a hypnotist plastic surgeon, Operation Kid Brother delivers answers you didn’t know you needed. Neil Connery’s civilian skills are as improbable as the plot, while the parade of Bond alumni makes this Eurospy spoof a psychotronic oddity worth a double take.
