Trivia
This film's main American release movie poster features a strong use of silhouette in its imagery. Silhouettes were a strong component of
Maurice Binder's opening title sequences in the James Bond movie franchise, a series that this film's lead actor
Sean Connery had been a major part of.

The movie had a lot of potential, unfortunately, it came apart because of a weak/implausible story line, miscasting, and general lack of content/substance. One of the very obvious flaws was that Sean Connery, who played an Arab man, didn't know how to pronounce his own Arab name! This may seem a small flaw but it points to the seeming lack of effort in paying attention to details. The quality of acting was uniformly well below average.
Movie's solitary saving grace was the twist in the plot at the very end; and a french song (I don't recall the title). Overall, it was a pretty bad movie where Sean Connery was visibly miscast.
