CGiii Comment

This was left on the shelf for 3 years waiting for a release date – 3 years well spent.

Bad wigs, gross miscasting, corny dialogue – if it is meant to be a comedy, it fails.

If it is meant to be a thriller – well, it’s not too thrilling.

This is a spectacular dud – a case of cashing in on the past successes of Ripley – it, quite rightly, bombed.
