Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/5 --
Iron-fisted Rod Taylor actioner, also starring Jim Brown.

Rating: 3.5/4 --
A brief shot finds Rod Taylor at a river, on his knees, his eyes as wild as those of a creature slaking its thirst at a water hole. It's a brilliant evocation of the idea that man is the world's most scared yet dangerous and deadly animal.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
What makes Jack Cardiff's film even less appealing is its bloody-minded way with a violent scene... this sort of brutality to work in the cause of entertainment, is inexcusable.
