What happens

O. K. Connery, released in the U. S. as Operation Kid Brother, is a 1967 Italian Eurospy comedy film shot in Technicolor and Techniscope, and directed by Alberto De Martino. The spy-fi plot involves the brother of the British spy James Bond, played by Neil Connery (the actual brother of Sean Connery, star of the Eon Productions Bond films), who is obliged to take the lead in foiling a world-domination plot. The film's cast includes several actors from the Eon-produced James Bond film series: From Russia with Love's Daniela Bianchi, Thunderball's Adolfo Celi, Dr. No's Anthony Dawson, Bernard Lee (M), and Lois Maxwell (Moneypenny), as well as the producer's wife Agata Flori, Gina Lollobrigida's cousin Guido Lollobrigida, and Yasuko Yama (a.k.a. Yee-Wah Young or Yee-Wah Yang, then in the publicity spotlight due to her relationship with James Mason; she appeared as a bath girl in You Only Live Twice under the name Yee-Wah Yang). The film received generally negative reviews from the New York Times, Variety and the Monthly Film Bulletin. The film was featured on the television series Mystery Science Theater 3000 in 1993.
