Four unfortunate men from different parts of the globe agree to risk their lives transporting gallons of nitroglycerin across dangerous Latin American jungle.
What seems to be a remake of “The Wages of Fear” (original title: “Le Salaire de la peur”) is based on the novel with the same name, it’s reat thriller with a great cast and with a good cinematic mood. The music by Tangerine Dream makes it even better and in the end, it’s a great watch, despite being a box office flop. I know Roy Scheider is not Yves Montand, and 1970s Hollywood is not 1950s European cinema, but it’s still a good movie on its own. Five popcorns.
