Customer Reviews: Asgabtu November 13, 2009 Ms. Jeanette Hayes (England) Watch the cd. Love Michael Cain a fantastic actor. This kind of thing still goes on but it is everywhere now. So people need to realize it is not a story it happens today. Even in Europe and England. Camp 1970s action for all the family November 27, 2000 marjorie@nsd.csa.scot.nhs.uk (Glasgow, Scotland) 17 out of 17 found this review helpful brbr Michael Caine described this as the worst, most wretched film I ever made, but, in reality, it's not that bad. brbr Michael Caine is a UN doctor, working in aid camps in Africa alongside his wife (Beverly Johnson), also a UN doctor, who is from the Ashanti tribe. While swimming in a lake near the aid camp, she is kidnapped by slave traders, led by Suleiman (Peter Ustinov). He is sure that, being an Ashanti and beautiful, he will get a high price for her from his best customer, wealthy Arab price Omar Sharif. brbr Caine sets off to find her, helped along the way by a British anti-slave campaigner (Rex Harrison), an American mercenary (William Holden) and an enigmatic Arabian nomad (Kabir Bedi). brbr Truly all-star, then, and not entirely unenjoyable. Not exactly taxing for either the audience or Caine, who does well as the grief-stricken but persistent husband, while Ustinov provides a comic turn as the slimy slave trader. brbr Camp, as only late 70s action movies can be, this is mindless but entertaining fun.
