"The brother of an American secret agent killed by a Nazi fugitive becomes involved in an international intrigue. Marathon Man is a solid thriller which makes a clever use of its darker elements. The performances are great, and Olivier in particular steals the show with his portrayal of pure evil in his character of the sadistic dentist."
