Rating: 4/4 --
It's a tall tale, a legend, of steadfastness, courage, camaraderie, gallantry and greed, though not necessarily in that order.

Rating: B- --
A decent but hardly great adventure escapist film, that's played for broad comedy.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
It's pure Huston: an impossible quest, an out-of-reach grail and an ironic twist leading to a supremely glorious failure.

Connery and Caine (both excellent) become classic Huston overreachers, and echoes of The Treasure of the Sierra Madre and Moby Dick permeate the mythic yarn.

Rating: B+ --
