Bitter Rivalry Colors a dull science plot
John Darling confronts a bitter enemy in an average research scientist portrayed by Neill. Van Dyke stands out as a caring, harried boss and sympathetic husband. Hunnicutt’s role shows a wife in pain, while Neill struggles to sell the scientist’s shift from public good to self glory. The viewer’s engagement wanes as plot potential fades.
