These are The most stunning use of this lighting The Next Man9 Is Confusing, Muddled Mess by David H. Wetzel As the crowd surged towards the door of the theatre, 1 overheard someone try to explain the plot of The Next Man to his befuddled wife. "Well, y'see, there's this guy named Khalil who wants to set up his own oil organization, but the other guys in the old organization don't like it, and then the first guy tries to make friends with Israel, but the other guys don't like that, so they try to kill this Khalil. and then the United States and everybody else tries to kill him, so that he won't set up the new organization. Ya understand now, dontcha?" Save for slight grammatical abnormalities, this is the essence of Richard Sarafian's The Next Man in a nutshell. Like a college calculus course, the film is too much theory and not enough action to keep one awake. Rather than sending production crews to sites all over the world, Sarafian should have saved his money and filmed in a studio. Of course, the exotic settings at least entertain the eyes while the rest of the body slips into a coma. Much of the blame must lie with Mort Fine's horrendous screenplay. He has the characters spouting so much anti-terrorist dogma that they forget what they are Sean Connery and Cornelia Sharpe supposed to be doing in the film. The film who would like to see Khalil take a Cornelia Sharpe's acting ability could opens with the introduction of the idea of a permanent vacation at the bottom of the have won her a role in Night o/ (he Living new organization of oil-exporting countries Hudson River.

She has the dead after ten minutes, murdered by Teterboro, New Jersey and manages to lose physical attributes to seduce Khalil, but she is "mysterious" outsiders; if you don't guess everybody along the way. so unconvincing that her expression of love who "they" are by the eleventh minute of Sean Connery, who brilliantly portrayed to him is a laughable scene. the film you're either blind or already asleep. an Arab in The Wind And The Lion, seems The Next Man starts out with a good idea, Khalil abdul-Mussein (Sean Connery) is to have lost his acting talent along with a lot but Sarafian seems determined to squelch handed the task of introducing the idea of of his hair since he played the dashing any attempts at development of that idea. the new OPEC to the United Nations.

This is regrettable, since The basic ingredients of the plot are Unfortunately, Khalil doesn't exactly win Connery's recent successes in The Man Who reminiscent of John LeCarre's novel, but the Arab friendship awards by announcing that Would Be Kind and Robin And Marian have senseless insertion of political ideology and Saudi Arabia wants Israel to be included in marked him as a quality performer. But anti-terrorist tirades drag the film from its the new group. So Khalil takes up with a Sarafian goes to the dogeared cliche of strongest selling points.
