According to wikepedia the movie got ony a 13 percent approval rating if you are a die hard john wayne buff you will be interested in the movie. i recently saw it on AMC. If wayne was not in it i probably would'nt pay attention to it. this movie seems to be the first where a hero is fighting not against other men but against nature. this film seems like a prequel to Harrison Fords clear and present danger. It is also one of the few films where john wayne is cast in a 20th century situation. some viewers point out the machoism in the movie like his two police movies of the 70's ie brannigan and mcq, his characters are the descendents of the cowboys he plays in his western classics.
