The dubbing detracts somewhat from the dialogue, but it's fast moving and efficient.

Could have been better!
The teaming up of Burt Lancaster and Kirk Douglas seemed a good idea but the film falls apart after 15 minutes or so, due to a bad script. It then becomes a typical 80's buddy movie with a flat ending - It could have been a brilliant movie if it had a strong, funny script
