    Weak and hard to watch!
    An irritating and completely uninspired music covers the dialogue in many scenes of the film. Anne Heywood is very beautiful, I fell in love with her, as a teenager when I saw her in "The Lady of Monza," made in 1969, same year as this "Midas Run". Richard Crenna was also a beautiful human which I've seen in many good action movies: "Wait Until Dark", "Marooned", "Un Flic", "Breakheart Pass", plus the 3 Rambo movies with Stallone. Fred Astaire, Ralph Richardson, Adolfo Celi, three very different actors as personality, all three outstanding in their category. But this film is a failure from all points of view. Boredom and waste of time. 2 stars, only for the very sexy body of Mrs. Heywood.
