The fact that it ISN't the awful 1996 version. That was trash and you all know it. No one in the theatre clapped, was talking etc. at the end when I saw it.

This one has Burt frickin' Lancaster in it! And an intelligent story/script!! Awesome!!!!!

I agree. Burt Lancaster was superb in the lead. And the script was quite intelligent as well.

Yes. Also Barbara Carrera looks great in this movie!
