What develops is a gulf between two min of different intelligence — the educated, clivjr Belafonte and the dumb, inarticulate Travolta. The film is a good idea poorly executed, even down to the clumsily conttivjd djnoujmjnt. In the continuing resurgence of Travolta's career, I think we have to mark this down as a commendable blip.
