At Last A Film That Deserves Connery And Caine

Rating: 8/10 (9 January 2003)

It`s not often a 70s flick starring either Sean Connery or Michael Caine can be described as good , never mind great but THE MAN WHO WOULD BE KING is a great film . It`s a good old fashioned romp set during Britain`s imperial past without a hint of cynicism , and with lashings of humour : " Corporal get three men and put him under close arrest . The bloody fool`s drunk again " . John Huston keeps a solid hand at the director`s helm and the scenery is breathtaking . And after watching this you`ll be asking yourself why neither Connery or Caine didn`t appear in more movies this good
