A bad movie

To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much from this flick but since I always had a weak spot for Paul Newman, I thought I might as well check it out. Unfortunately, the whole thing was indeed pretty bad. Indeed, back then, at the end of the 70’s, there was this wave of disaster movies, some of them were actually pretty good but some of them were pretty bad and this movie might have been the worst I ever seen in this genre. At least, Paul Newman gave, as usual, a decent performance but he looked just so bored during the whole thing. And indeed, it was really a boring movie. In fact, at some point in his life, Newman himself confessed that this film was the only one he ever did for the money. The makers did try to add some supposedy 'exciting' scenes but none of them tuned out to be actually thrilling whatsoever. Furthermore, the dialogues were just laughable and the special effects were even worse. Eventually, I have to admit that I have never been a huge of fan disaster movies but this movie just sucked big time. To conclude, this flick was never really entertaining whatsoever and you should really avoid it.
