      Movie Info

      Police Detective Jim Brannigan (John Wayne) is sent from Chicago to London to extradite a wanted American criminal, Ben Larkin (John Vernon). However, Larkin is kidnapped before Brannigan can apprehend him, igniting a manhunt throughout the city. Jennifer (Judy Geeson), a British police officer, is appointed to help Brannigan, who is frequently bewildered by English customs. Brannigan's harsh policing techniques also lead to constant clashes with Cmdr. Swann (Richard Attenborough).

        Fun to see the Duke as a detective instead of a cowboy. But I found the script pretty bland.

        Drags a bit in spots, but it's a fun cop movie starring the Duke.

        enjoyable 70s cop thriller as legend john wayne plays brannign a chicago cop off to london to escort a prisoner back to the u.s and runs into all matter of trouble as bad guys want him dead, wayne does his thing, and certainly a joy watching him deal with london low lifes and police politics, also starring richard atenborough as a police captain

        Unexceptional crime thriller benefits from London location filming, a cast full of good actors and John Wayne in the lead. The main story is average but it moves at a good pace and has an enjoyable car chase thrown in. The theme music over the opening credits is classic terrible 70's junk but fortunately the rest of the supplemental soundtrack is much more in synch with the feeling of the film.
