rotten:
Under Henry King's direction there is little of the old Fox pep.

fresh:
With a star-filled cast and a fitful sense of drama, it's pretty much the same old recipe as the equivalent cycle of megabudget '70s exploiters, but the climactic conflagration is certainly worth the wait.

Mr. King's direction, occasionally, is inspired, and the photography has unusual style and dramatic impact.
