Review of The Longest Yard (1974) by Kevin Williams for Chicago Tribune — 16 Jun 1987
Where the original was a serious film with funny moments, this movie isn't sure if it's a drama or comedy, too incompetently rendered to be both. What it accomplishes instead is to be nothing at all. An excessive, stupid, empty-headed nothing.
