Hellfighters (1968)

In 'Hellfighters' John Wayne and Jim Hutton travel the world fighting oil fires. Sounds exciting dosen't it? Well Univeral Studios apparently decided it should be mostly dull, talkie and heavy on the relationship drama, in effect putting out this movies fire. Of course there are some exciting moments, as well as the requisit John Wayne bar fight, but this movie could have been much much better. Vera Miles and Kathrine Ross play our leads love interests, both are wasted in their roles. *1/2
