Moral outrage is unbecoming in a fantasy, perhaps in any fiction. But just as in his Capricorn One, Peter Hyams has hypothesized a preposterous situation so as to allow himself to act indignant about it. The situation here -- nine Los Angeles County judges who have set up a "Court of Last Resort" to sentence and punish criminals who have slipped through legal loopholes at least connects to a real issue: vigilante justice. Hyams nonetheless takes plenty of time off from the issue in order to indulge his even greater passion for careening chase scenes. Michael Douglas, Hal Holbrook, Sharon Gless, and Yaphet Kotto. (1983) — Duncan Shepherd
