Horrible, had me laughing at all the wrong places
8 August 2010
Somewhere in the novel, I'll assume that there was a story with a heart. Portions of it are can be sensed here, but just barely.

A theme I found intriguing was the conflict between western civilization represented by Rachel Cade. She represents western ideals such as equal rights for women and the advancement of science and medicine. However, the "civilized" nations are involved in a horrible war, and she becomes involved in a moral conflict of her own.

Many of the actors played dignified and serious characters. Angie Dickinson was enjoyable to watch. But that's it, as far as things about this movie that I found watchable.

For example: every other character had an accent that wandered all over the map. Other than Dicksonson and Peter Finch, everybody else's was ridiculous, including Roger Moore as a doctor from "Bahston". As a result I could not take most scenes seriously.
