Member Movie Reviews Keith A. (Keefer522) Reviewed on 9/23/2013... "Fathom" is a breezy late 60s spy comedy starring Racquel Welch as a champion sky diver who gets mixed up in some cloak-and-dagger nonsense involving priceless Chinese treasure while on tour in Spain. The story is utter fluff but the Spanish scenery is nice and so is the Racquel Welch scenery. Seriously fellas, Racquel was the hottest woman in the world at this time, and she's so gorgeous in this movie that it's almost ridiculous. Don't bother with the plot, just watch it for the eye candy. 1 of 1 member(s) found this review helpful.
Movie ReviewsRaquel in all her glory! Byron Kolln | the corner where Broadway meets Hollywood | 11/13/2002 (4 out of 5 stars) "Raquel Welch is delightful in the sexy spy spoof FATHOM. FATHOM has just been given its long-awaited DVD release along with the similarly-themed MODESTY BLAISE, OUR MAN FLINT and IN LIKE FLINT.Fathom Harvill (Raquel Welch) is a dental hygienist-turned-skydiver who is recruited by a bumbling investigator and his young sidekick Timothy (Richard Briers) to uncover a man (Tony Franciosa) and his Chinese girlfriend (Greta Chi), who have reportedly stolen military secrets and encoded information that could potentially end in the earth's destruction.Fathom ends up in a series of near-fatal encounters as the enemy changes at every turn. Fathom, to her horror, discovers that in order to survive she can trust no-one.The comical script is played dead-seriously with this stellar cast which also includes the fabulous Clive Revill as Fathom's masterly-foil Serapkin. Welch is luminous in what is regarded as her best film of the 60's, and the film is ably-directed by Leslie Martinson. (Single-sided, single-layer disc)." Fathom on DVD... worth the wait! Jarkko Inkovaara | Cambridge,Ontario,Canada | 08/13/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "I just got my copy of "Fathom" on DVD ..being a huge Raquel Welch fan,and of 60's spy capers i have patiently waited for this movie to finally come on the market.I saw this movie originally when i was 14 years old,and i tried to see if i could get it on video & DVD,but it wasn't avalible. Probably because of the nastolgia for 60's spy movies,in part due to the sucess of Austin Powers,these gems are finally being re-released i couldn't be happier! I really enjoyed this film alot,beautifully shot in Spain,i enjoyed chracters,the sets,cars,the costumes,gadgets,and the music..and ah-em ... Raquel Welch,especially in the lime green bikini peddaling the catamaran. In today's very graphic, sex-voilence action films,Fathom is refreshing,a throw back to the care-free 60's. I've been turned on to alot of 60's movies,because of the current tastelessness.. of contemporary Hollywood films,Fathom,the Avengers,early Bond flicks,are the perfect antidote for me. The whole time i was watching Fathom i could image Austin Powers sitting down next to me saying "yeah baby" whenever Raquel would appear on film. This movie is a must have for any collector of 60's spy movies,and of Raquel Welch. Definatly recomended. The plot is easy to understand,no complicated Tom Cruise "Mission Impossible" here,the bull chase is definatly original in Fathom.Greta Chi who is also very sexy like Raquel in this film is her nemesis,and pulls it off very well..." Good clean fun---in a lime-green bikini! jon sieruga | Redlands, CA USA | 06/28/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "Knockout Raquel Welch creates a sexy, lively, tongue-in-cheek character here, playing Fathom Harvill, wise-cracking, sky-diving dental assistant(who's "sick of staring at molars!")mixed up in murder and intrigue in Spain. Someone took great care to cast lots of colorful eccentrics in the supporting roles, and the beauty of the location is perfectly captured. Of course it's a sub-James Bond fluffball, but the aerial stunts and blue-screen effects are fantastic and the script is a charming collection of witty one-liners."
