Oh boy, where to begin? One of the few films that Caine barely mentioned in either of his two autobiographies, simply describing it as "yet another bad film". Well, it certainly wasn't a successful film. But bad? Yes and no. Based on the novel by Robert Ludlum, The Holcroft Covenant is a film of two halves. The first, for the most part, is pretty good.

Caine is ok in this light thriller on ominous subject (nazi lagacy) in wich Frankenheimer is really down.
The Holcroft Covenant is a 1985 thriller film based on the Robert Ludlum novel of the same name. The film stars Michael Caine and was directed by John Frankenheimer. The script was written by Edward Anhalt, George Axelrod, and John Hopkins.
