Viewing Notes

So funny that they went back to the well 18 years after the original film for basically the same, albeit much shorter, film but this was made for TV. The commercial breaks are rather funny to see. Only a couple years before Lee Marvin’s death he even looks a lot older than he is (he’s always seemed to appear older than his age). Nice cast here but sadly a lousy story for them to work with yet it’s still very watchable.
