Above all, kill Hitler!
BA_Harrison11 July 2015
Danger 5 travel to Africa to try and kill Hitler, who has taken up residence in a casino where he is using the gold to manufacture the ultimate gun. Also staying at the casino is Rommel, who just so happens to be Ilsa's ex-husband, and who wants to create a battalion of golden tanks. In order to get close to Hitler, Tucker goes undercover as top card-player John Baccarat, and is invited to play a private game against the Führer.

Another rather disappointing episode, Hitler's Golden Murder Palace once again fails to deliver in the completely crazy stakes. It all starts off promisingly enough with the hilariously OTT death of agent Gruber, whose head is reduced to a flaming skull when Hitler shoots him, but after that, the episode just doesn't display the level of invention and insanity that I know the show is capable of. Well, that is except for the very ending, where the heroes use their fingers as imaginary guns to defeat Hitler—now THAT WAS stupid!

My favourite moment: Claire (Amanda Simons) puts on a slinky red number and dark wig to disguise herself as sexy lounge singer Rosetta. One word: wowzer!

Running Low on Ideas?

Warning: Spoilers
This is the first Danger 5 episode in which I started feeling bored.

There don't seem to be many, if any, original ideas here. A casino, submarine, love triangle, super weapons. It's nowhere near as inventive or interesting as the previous episodes. I hope this doesn't signal a downturn in quality so early in the series.

I did like the birdman eating the spider off his shoulder.

The thing for me that lowers this down to a 4 is the Finger Guns scene. I honestly thought that was quite stupid and unfunny. It really took me out of the show.

There are a few good moments but not enough to make it worth a rewatch.
