Viewing Notes
Definitely one I would rather view on my phone or iPad. Super grainy print that looks pretty lousy blown up on the TV. For an adventure flick it’s pretty flat in execution. Having seen several of Juran’s films this one lacks the thrills that he’s typically good at establishing. Here we just have some fake birds attacking the hot air balloon and slave apes in the prison.
