In Like Flint is a 1967 sequel to the spy film, Our Man Flint
(1966). James Coburn returns to the role of Derek Flint, a James Bond like spy. Lee J. Cobb reprises his role as Flint's boss Lloyd C. Cramden.

Critical reaction

The film received mixed or negative reviews when released. A New York Times reviewer noticed that the film lacked the sex appeal of the first film. "Although the film crawls with dime-store beauties, there is a noticeable lack of sexiness in it. Women bent on being tyrants evidently haven't much time for anything else."

Film critic Roger Ebert's review has similar criticisms. "The sexiest thing in the new Derek Flint misadventure, "In Like Flint," is Flint's cigarette lighter, which is supposed to know 82 tricks but actually delivers only five, of which one is the not extraordinary ability to clip Lee J. Cobb's moustache."
