July 27, 2009How have I never seen this before? So so so much fun. Great cinematography by Barry Sonnenfeld and great directon from Phil Joanou. Why did Spielberg take his name off this?

A bit like High Noon in the countdown aspect. Unlike Gary Cooper, Casey Siemaszko tries very hard to escape the fate that awaits him... read more

Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality and Practice
The screenplay writers throw the story away in a finale which celebrates the machismo the rest of the film mocks.
