Yul Brynner plays political leader Sharif who is sprung from a paddy wagon on his way to a firing squad by young loyalists led by Sal Mineo. Yul and also the other detainees abduct a rescue and head right into the Arabian desert with the police in hot search. All the performances are wonderful: Sal Mineo showing his acting talents, Jack Warden in a wiseguy efficiency as a worker of Zahrain oil who was associated with embezzlement, Anthony Caruso as a slimy psychotic as well as the underrated Madlyn Rhue as a registered nurse who becomes mentally associated with the procedures.
