This movie is saved by a good performance by Robert Shaw and an extremely good performance by Christopher Plummer. Unfortunately, really no one else in the acting, directing, writing or production department can keep up with Plummer and Shaw. At the end of the day, Plummer and Shaw take a film that would almost surely have been a bad film without them, and they at least lift it to a fairly good film because of their performances.
