"Just how much can one man take?" [SFU 74/75 Film Workshop Showcase program]; "I can't quite pinpoint why but this film felt stiff and nervous, part of it was some rather stilted acting from Richard Ouzounian, with lots of long pauses. There was some good photography. The opening scenes of the film were very effective, black and white still shots showing the brother as he is released from prison are interspersed with quick color cuts of the former inmate going into an arcade. There is also a fairly well paced chase scene, as an unknown gunman pursues a janitor via ancient elevators. The movie attempts to show the build up of fears which culminate in the madness and defeat of the inmate's business man brother, but doesn't quite succeed because of the inadequacy of the acting, trite dialogue and awkward scenes."
