"The Cassandra Crossing" is a star-studded gimmick film that made money at the box office. Unfortunately, the gimmick is all there is to this film.

Not sure how I missed this one all these years. It's right up my alley - 70s sci-fi/disaster movie full of well-known actors. Also, it took a turn I didn't see coming.

Despite a rather ridiculous premise, The Cassandra Crossing, although presented in standard disaster film format, is entertaining enough to be a worthwhile watch. It doesn't hurt that the cast is good and the film does a good of depicting a moral dilemma.

This has the feel of so many other films; The confinement of 12 angry men, the theme of the Satan Bug and the mystery of Orient Express married with the runnaway train. Strange then that it should lack any personality of its own. Contrived, flat and on the whole rather uninteresting

Skillfully directed and edited, "The Cassandra Crossing" is a very entertaining and suspenseful film, boasting a great cast of veteran A-listers and an awe-inspiring climax. The tension rarely drops throughout and the moral aspects of the story make things even more interesting. This is a powerfully epic and sadly underestimated cinematic jewel.
