Viewing Notes

I haven’t seen this since sometime in the 80s. The only things I remembered were that fabulous poster and how it ends. Going in I thought it wasn’t too bad but as this film progresses I realized what makes it a lesser film (at least compared to masterpiece before it). There’s not much character development or great dialogue. It’s one set piece after another to get to the finale. Still worth seeing for the great, late Roy Scheider.
