I rated this movie as "fair." For me, it wasn't the greatest disaster movie, however, it was good for it's time. Timothy Bottom was absolutely gorgeous when he was young. The destruction scenes appear to be amateurish, almost like watching buildings fall after Godzilla smacks them with it's tail. Although the bad guy got his just deserts, the ending was really lame in my opinion. I wouldn't exactly vote against watching this movie, but, if you do watch it, keep in mind that it's a seventies movie.

Solid disaster movie. It's more of a site slow-burn than its brethren, there's not much "action" to speak of, but that doesn't make it any less tense or thrilling. Segal and Bottoms are both great in it. Really holds up.

Perfectly good 70s disaster/terror movie. A good sunday afternoon. The band sparks play near the end which was a nice suprise.

Wrong psychological profile, Harry. I'm not in this for kicks.

Rollercoaster is directed by James Goldstone and co-adapted to screenplay by Sanford Sheldon, Richard Levinson and William Link from a suggested Tommy Cook story. It stars George Segal, Timothy Bottoms, Richard Widmark, Harry Guardino More
