Ellen is the wife of an international industrialist. She and her two children are kidnapped from their home in Athens and taken to an abandoned monastery by a group of terrorists.

A very likeable and literally relaxing film. It's no masterpiece, and it is quite obvious that the plot exists mainly to culminate in a truly unusual rescue mission. Should that bother me? It could have, but it doesn't matter. There's the good James Coburn, whose idea for the aforementioned flying between high rocks was probably whispered to him by Wile E. Coyote, there's Schifrin's sensational music (he plays with Greek motifs in a similar way to Escape to Athena, meaning very nicely), there are briskly shot action scenes (the ending with the hang gliders and the helicopter, in which J.C. did stunts, bears comparison to the best Bond films) and, above all, the constant feeling that everything will turn out well in the end. It’s good.
