In this well-crafted adaptation of Alistair MacLean’s best-selling novel, undersea salvage expert John Talbot (Barry Newman) seeks revenge for the death of his wife and child after their plane — which was carrying priceless gems — gets shot down. To infiltrate the culprits’ nest, Talbot masquerades as a criminal. A hair-raising car chase, classic underwater special effects and the film debut of Ben Kingsley punctuate this fast-paced thriller.
