Agree with the previous reviewer that this film is too stage bound to be called great. But I also agree with him or her that the writing is first rate and since good writing (which includes dialogue, characterization and story) is as important to a film's overall quality as good cinematography or acting I would disagree with cjskama-956 515706 on the 4 out of 10 rating. Let's compromise on a B minus. PS...No matter what you think of the movie it's way better than the 60s TV series, especially once the producers jettisoned the intense Robert Lansing for the always bland Paul Burke.
