  • Fun but dated

    Rated - 3.0 stars

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    It might be dated but any film with Michael Caine and Peter Ustinov is well worth watching.

  • In Michael Caine's own words...

    Rated - 5.0 stars  
    By a customer , 28 Aug 2012
    The best bad film we've seen in ages! Michael Caine at his most wooden best - and a little shouty too!.

    From his biography, he says...

    'No you won't have heard of it, and I hope you never see it!'

    I wish I'd taken his advice - be warned it's also 1:57 long!

    worth a look....some mention Omar Sharif's swashbucking in it....sorry but the guy fighting alongside Michael is Kabir Bedi ~ Omar flits in at the end & runs befores the fighting starts.

    A wee bit dated but then aren't most films from the 70s, we are so used to so many special effects these days.

  • Good film from Caine

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By a customer from Shropshire , 22 Sep 2005
    I really enjoyed watching this film. The first time I watched it was in the early 80s and I could vaguely remember that it was a good film.

    Michael Caine plays his role well as the doctor who is searching for his beautiful wife played by Beverly Johnson, who gets kidnapped in Africa whilst vaccinating the local villagers. The film follows his adventure of how he struggles to hunt for her with the authorities being less than helpful.

    Peter Ustinov is the bad guy and Kabir Bedi plays his role excellently as Caine's aid in searching for his wife. Other well known actors include Omar Sharif, Rex Harrison and William Holden .

    There is something about these old films that cannot be reproduced in the new films that come out now. This film was good to watch.

  • Camels and Sand

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By a customer from Bristol , 08 Aug 2005
    Michael Caine and Omar Sharif showing their swashbuckling skills. Not edge of your seat drama but nevertheless excellant viewing. Unlike more recent films does not rely on gratuitouse sex, violence and swearing to tell the story. A pleasant change.
