Entertainment Reviews:
There are several big holes in the story but a steadily mounting tension and a spectacular action climax offer considerable compensation.

Rating: 6/10 --
For what seems a pretty trite story, it develops some good dramatic action, romance, and interest in the main characters.

Product Description:
Based on a novel by Hammond Innes, the British CAMPBELL'S KINGDOM is set in the Canadian Rockies. Dirk Bogarde plays Bruce Campbell, a British aristocrat who has been given only six months to live. Inheriting a financially troubled Canadian valley, Campbell finds a new lease on life as he champions the cause of the local citizenry. He is particually effective in standing up to the eco-unfriendly excesses of contractor Owen Morgan (Stanley Baker), whose ethically-challenged dam project threatens to flood the valley. Methodically paced, CAMPBELL'S KINGDOM rewards the viewer's patience with an abundance of action highlights, the best of which is reserved for last.
