The only reason this gets a positive rating is that it's so damned bad it becomes entertaining. Nothing even vaguely resembling action or suspense here, the "thrills" are usually interrupted by Jimmie Walker's weed-smoking antics or Martha Raye's numerous battles with the Concorde crapper. Features my all-time favorite film quote from George Kennedy :"They don't call it a cockpit for nothin' " ???!!!...Classic.

They're all pretty bad, but this one's the worst! With NO chemistry between Delon and Love interest Kristel, bad special effects and an awful awful AWFUL script. It's so bad it's almost entertaining! Almost!
