- RobotDevilm8June 30, 2025zzz. boring.
- Mister ArnFebruary 17, 2025This disaster film didn't age well, and the only reason I can think to watch it now is to give some context to "Airplane!"
- .LAGJune 29, 2025For an entry in the action/thriller category, the pacing here is painfully slow. Filled with a star-studded cast, there is far too much back-story, and not enough cinematic foreshadowing of the impending doom. I understand this story is based on a best-selling novel at the time (1970), and that I'm evaluating this with 2025 sensibilities and attention-span, but the build-up to the big reveal of the threat here is yawn-inducing. Perhaps if Hitchcock had directed this, we may have gotten more drama and a more satisfying simmering of psychological excitement, but--to me--this mooophie commits the ultimate sin: it's boring.
