John Wayne had a long,productive career to be proud of. He'd paid his dues many times-over,and he had established himself as a legend,decades before this movie was made. There was no pressing need for Mr. Wayne to make this movie or any of the other 5 or 6 last films he made. By the time this film was made,Mr. Wayne was getting on in the years and he was in poor health. There was nobody in Hollywood or anywhere else that would have denied that Mr Wayne deserved to relax,retire in style and enjoy the time he had left,doing something,anything
besides making more movies.
But,instead,Mr. Wayne continued on,making more movies.
Not just any movies,but several very-crummy movies in a row. Several bona-fide,honest-to-God howlers,bombs,and stinkers, in-fact. This movie here is just one good example of those several terrible last movies.
This is a very-crummy movie,for many reasons. Watch it if you must,watch it if you don't believe me,but if you do watch it you will regret it. Do yourself a favor, keep and hold onto all the good thoughts you still have about Mr Wayne by skipping this bomb entirely.
