I find this review offensive! I don’t agree with this review. I agree with this review.
2 stars (Good Try) It couldn't make up its mind what kind of a film it wanted to be. The athletic action is good . Introduces an unnecessary character in a water polo player - two of his scenes are infantile - & it delays the athletic action which has a soppy ending. ~Tubbs
