inevitable after his vision of a comparison with the having remake starring John Travolta and Denzel Washington and the subsequent appreciation of the original, not a nostalgic or simply because of sheer love for film, because at the time this film as a single run television that I remember not m 'curious, but after years it has become necessary to the recovery and the successful discovery of its superiority over the contemporary remake in some respects not indifferent.
First of all is the irony that pervades and convinces the element of this film, thanks to a priceless always great Walter Matthau compared with an able and conscientious Robert Shaw, actor known for his role of hunter sharks film Jaws by Spielberg.
Sargent's film has the right rhythm, the right ambience and atmosphere, and an appropriate cast to tell a story of tension that unfolds in a closed environment, demonstrating how a good idea to start and a direction effective to be able to make a story it knows to be biting and sarcastic at the right point, with twists that effective compared with the excess film coated spectacular win for Tony Scott's style and class. Scott tries to update the address of departure and try to insert obvious shadows against the figure of the hero of the moment, and letting the irony in the hands of the evil villain Travolta, who still does his job, but it is to reveal all of the doubts and rhetorical flaws that the original did not, demonstrating a happy time of the cinema of that time, some of which is regretted, but perhaps the audience will not be able to appreciate contemporary practice, unless the authors Tarantino film as this film seems to Serie B in the past is a great observer and lover, so much to learn and engulf cleverly rework ideas and archetypes.
