Better than not bad, I think. Some good performances, unfortunately none of them came from Ned beatty nor Danny Glover. My favourite had to be retired sniper Mr Rate, played by The Band drummer/singer Levon Helm. Should have given him a bigger partQuote:

It is, I saw it at the cinema when it came out. Good cast too. I think George MacDonald Frasier wrote the script, or had a hand in it anyway. I actually prefer it to Guns Of Navarone myself.Quote:

In her autobiography, she claimed: "I actually thought CBS asked me to be on Battle of the Network Stars because they thought I was athletic. My husband clued me in: who cared if I won the race, as long as I bounced when I ran?Quote:

Fog was great to watch again. Remaster was nicely cleaned up. No big stars really, but a simple story of REVENGE.Quote:
