Juggernaut (1974)

This Richard Harris vehicle is really an ensemble piece, with "baby" Anthony Hopkins adding some juicy dramatic bits in the detective-on-land role. Why do British suspense films always have to be political commentaries: "How do we cope with terrorists?" And too much time was spent on the interminable intricacies (and failures! Spoiler!) of bomb-defusing. This flick was okay: I didn't mind watching it, but I wouldn't recommend it (too much of a dude movie).
