Ronnie M Nov 22 Pretty good.......great plot twist See more Don L Sep 24 This is one of the very best film noirs. There are one or two issues of plausibility with the premise, but if you can accept the premise, the rest follows wonderfully well. There's a great twist near the end--and the cinematography is as good as any film noir--perhaps better than any other. See more Ted B @Movieaddicted 09/07/2024 4.0 stars; One of the better film noir movies from the early 1950s. A surprising hit, considering it had a top Director (Richard Fleischer) leading a bunch of good but lesser known character actors. From the TCM Channel; Howard Hughes, at RKO, loved the movie. But he refused to release the film because he wanted to reshoot it with big-name actors of the time (Robert Mitchum and Jane Russell). Fleischer loved the film as shot. Two years later, the film was released when Fleischer agreed to do a big-name cast movie for Hughes. The movie takes place mostly on a train. This cleverly adds to the great thriller suspense of taking place in an enclosed area. The character actors did their jobs well. The Director put the audience on the train with these characters. I also liked the plot twist at the end of the movie. See more Steve D 04/05/2024 Not a lot new here but entertaining. See more Morvia 8thsin/ 3 03/03/2024 The movie in duration in acting puts the viewer into the film as not wanting to leave the viewer while many lines are classic and not matched from any of my viewing experiences. This movie stands the test of time in my opinion as there are not any imperfections nor inconsistencies. See more j f @LiberteBurrows 11/21/2023 RKO and Robert Fleischer make another B that bangs!
