Movie Reviews of Juggernaut

Movie Review: Excellent thriller..Very clever and suspenseful
Summary: 5 Stars

I saw this in the movies as a child and was bored by it. (It is much too complex for a ten year old) I recently rented then bought the disc because I liked it so much.
It's a great suspense-thriller about bombs on an ocean liner. Don't read too much about it, just watch it.
Richard Harris is good in it as a British Army bomb disarmer, the best in Europe. He gets called upon to find and dismantle the bombs without paniking the passengers. The bomber is an extortionist, not a terrorist, so that is a little different. I like this movie a lot.

Summary of Juggernaut

The high seas have never been more terrifying than in this riveting, tension-packed adventure. Richard Harris (Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets) and Omar Sharif (Doctor Zhivago) head an all-star cast that includes Oscar?(r) winner* Anthony Hopkins (Hannibal) in a"tingling" (The Village Voice), edge-of-your-seat shipboard thriller! HMS Britannicis caught in a storm at sea. But the real terror is on boardseven bombs planted by a terrorist calling himself Juggernaut, who demands a high ransom in exchange for the passengers' lives. Bomb expert Fallon (Harris) is flown to the ship and, as negotiations break down, he struggles with the mostchallenging job of his life in a race against time! *1991: Actor, The Silence of the Lambs
One of director Richard Lester's least-known films, Juggernaut was part of the wave of disaster movies of the early 1970s--and one of the only ones with a sense of intelligence. Richard Harris, in one of his most controlled performances, plays a bomb expert called aboard a luxury liner in midocean; the ship has been commandeered by an anonymous terrorist, demanding money before he starts setting off bombs he has planted around the vessel. The cast, which includes David Hemmings, Anthony Hopkins, and Omar Sharif, is a solid one, and the suspense is thick enough to cut through, with Lester's nasty sense of humor working at full throttle as the countdown gets into the single digits. --Marshall Fine
