There's a massacre in this movie BEFORE Charlie Bronson even shows up, but in the end this is just another briefly entertaining and ultimately forgettable 80's action flick. One Mormon dude has like 5 wives, that's baller.

Feels like an episode of Murder, She Wrote with added Mormon slaughter. A mature Bronson stars as a journalist who for his age is surprisingly capable of dishing out very effective violence. Quite ludicrous, too tame, but reasonably well made and likeably daft Cannon fare.

Not as awful as the critics would have you believe. Bronson is a little old for the part and is a kind of miscast, but the backdrop of the Mormon community adds something different.

It started out really good but fell when the villain's true intentions are revealed. The film lost me after that. They blew a good opening on a BS plot.

This late career collaboration between J. Lee Thompson and Charles Bronson has Bronson cast against type as a reporter instead of a detective, making it light in action for a Bronson vehicle (but hey the guy was already well into his 60s when he made this). Still the murder mystery engages sufficiently while this lasts.
