Rarely if ever a fan of the actor/director, Kael didn’t reverse course for this shoot-‘em-up action thriller, but it had been a Christmastime (!) hit by the time her negative review ran. Alcoholic cop Eastwood is assigned to spirit upscale call girl Sondra Locke from Las Vegas to Phoenix so that she can testify against a gangster, but he’s being set up by corrupt superiors in league with the mob. With many an Eastwood fave including Bill McKinney, Mara Corday, and Dan Vadis.
