1973, Movie, PG, 90 mins

In this cheapie ground out to cash in on the early wave of air piracies in America, Roarke hijacks a plane his boss Robinson is on. It seems Roarke has piled up massive debts by gambling and wants ransom money to pay them off. The film runs roughshod through the inane plot. The direction is shamefully amateurish. leave a comment

I'm instituting a dollar-a-pun rule — it's a crisp greenback in the jar every time you spout a bit of cutesy, water-related dialogue. (Uh-oh. I don't owe a buck for "spout," do I?) After some death-defying highway hot-doggery, the pair manage to score their first above-water sighting — alongside an entire marina full of tourists. We've got monster on tape! Oh wait, no we don't. Thanks a lot, electromagnetic superpowers. Whose side are you on, anyway? Hip! Hip! Hooray for the B-story: Nim's loose in the Piggly Wiggly! Now this is the sort of read more
