"Last of the Mobile Hot Shots" originally got an X rating when it was first released, which is puzzling because even by 1970 standards the movie isn't that explicit. In fact, by today's standards it's possible it might get a PG-13 rating. But all the same, the movie hasn't improved over the decades. The stage origins of this story are all too evident. Director Sidney Lumet tries his best to keep things moving, but with almost all the story taking place in one specific location, the movie quickly becomes boring. The actors do try, and aren't that bad in the end, but because the movie is almost all talk (and talk that isn't particularly interesting for the most part) and no action, their great efforts don't liven things up that much. However, if you have ever wanted to see James Coburn do a nude scene, here's your movie.
