I still remember the opening sequence of this film, when fresh faced Steve Guttenberg stumbles upon Nazis in Paraguay and is stabbed to death as a result.
The scene sequence still has power - it's the best in the film. After that the action slows down and the film is bogged in accent acting of Laurence Olivier and Gregory Peck. Alright, Peck, you play a villain we get it. Alright Olivier you've got an accent, we get it.
The Nazis don't feel to be a threat - I mean, James Mason tries to take out Peck. The kid who plays the young Adolph isn't good. It's not scary. It feels too silly.
