Jeremiah Chechick directed this $60 million adaptation of the whimsical 1961 British TV spy series, imported to the United States five years later for ABC airing (beginning 3/28/66), followed by The New Avengers (CBS, 1978-79). In the feature-length version, secret agent John Steed (Ralph Fiennes) and Emma Peel (Uma Thurman) face a meteorological menace as they track sinister super-villain Sir August de Wynter (Sean Connery), threatening to blitz Britain with blizzards and other extreme weather. Vocal cameo by Patrick Macnee (the original TV Steed).

Ralph Fiennes and Uma Thurman step into the roles made famous by Patrick Macnee and Diana Rigg in the British '60s TV series. Unfortunately, they were not as convincingly enough as their predecessors were. Sean Connery is typecasted as a villain planning to blitz England with his powerful weather machine. Personally, the TV series was much better.
