Sorry, this movie sucks

Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

I saw this in 1971 at college. It may have made sense to kids in the 1930"s, but at times the auditorium rocked with laughter. Have you ever seen a movie that was so bad it was funny? That's what this is. The basic story was passable, but its execution (I mean that literally!) was terrible. The dialogue was inane; the acting was amateurish at best; the directing could have been done by one of the youngsters in the target audience. The special effects were extremely low-budget, and primitive by today's standards. It made for a hilarious evening's entertainment, but not because it was handled by good comic actors.
