      Josh G Meh, go watch a bond film..... Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/21/23 Full Review Audience Member If you can get past the extreme implausibility of Sean Connery being cast as a Saudi Arabian diplomat, you'll find that this is an extremely dull film. After his predecessor is assassinated, Connery comes to New York to address the United Nations and announces sweeping changes to OPEC and relations with Israel. People threaten to kill him, he wanders around New York, dates a British woman, and it all culminates in a twist everybody has seen coming for the last hour. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Oh well, its Connery. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Pauline Kael New Yorker The Next Man teeters on the edge of parody without giving itself the relief of falling over. It's a four-million-dollar Grade B movie. Jan 19, 2024 Full Review Vincent Canby New York Times There have been more expensive films this year, and more foolish ones, but The Next Man must be the most foolish film of such expense. Oct 23, 2019 Full Review Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times A movie with an impenetrable plot that nevertheless has its moments. Rated: 2.5/4 Oct 30, 2018 Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com …it’s not just the incessant shots of the Twin Towers and Concorde that date Richard C Sarafian’s film; the political angle seems naïve even for the 70’s… Rated: 2/5 Jul 18, 2023 Full Review Ruth Batchelor Los Angeles Free Press The Next Man is not a good movie but it has something for everyone, especially if you want to see London, Nice, Morocco, Ireland, the Bahamas, Bavaria and New York and have nothing better to do on Thanksgiving day. Oct 28, 2019 Full Review Bernard Drew Gannett News Service The Next Man is a beautifully photographed (by Michael Chapman) thriller, which goes all around the world and no place at all.
