Twentieth Century-Fox Film
Directed by Mark Robson
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Warner Archive Collection)
Russian spy Robert Shaw is being escorted out of the country by American spy Lee Marvin and friends on a train. The Russians aren't too happy about this and attack the train by many methods to try to stop him. The most interesting is a massive avalanche started by explosives, which buries a town but does not stop the train. Later, the chase transfers to boats for the finale. Robert Shaw, who died of a heart attack during production, is dubbed throughout which is distracting. Joe Namath proves once again he is no actor, and Linda Evans is not much better. Still, an entertaining diversion for disaster fans.
