this be one of the bad movie i have ever see . palance totally overact while and that be the best thing i have to say . the tone of the movie be all over the map and the dramatic part be not dramatic and the forced comedic scene be actually the best dramatic part of the movie . it be so bad and you can not even make fun of it ( believe me we try ) . overall and it be truly painful . the only reason to watch this movie be to see martin kove at his best and unless you like watch people chew palance et al . seem to have some cud in their mouth the entire movie maybe it be aspirin to overcome the pain of make the movie .
