An average movie

Honestly, it is quite an obscure movie (I was only the 3rd user to rate this flick and not even 10 listal members have seen it apparently) but since I always had a weak spot for Sean Connery, I was quite eager to check it out. You should not to mix it up with the movie of the same anme directed by Ron Howard and it is actually a rather well done thriller with a solid perfomance by Sean Connery. I have to admit it, it was rather weird to see this legendary actor playing someone from Scandinavia with his usual Scottish accent so Connery didn’t really convince but he compensated with his amazing charisma. Concerning the plot, it wasn't really original but it wasn't bad at all and I thought it was fairly entertaining. It was also funny to see Ian McShane almost 30 years before he finally got his big breakthrough with ‘Deadwood’ (that’s what I call a really late bloomer). To conclude, even though it was nothing really amazing and even though it is completely forgotten nowadays, I thought it was still a decent thriller and, if you're a fan of Sean Connery’s work, it is definitely worth a look.
