Insomniac X @RT03001349 02/05/2025 Buddy movie about two truckers surviving on the brink. The camaraderie between Bogie and George Raft is contagious, and makes for an engaging first half. Unfortunately, the film's detour into murder mystery melodrama drastically alters its tone and lessens its impact.

Nothing to recommend here besides Bogie alongside George Raft. See more acsdoug D @acsdoug 07/11/2024 Usually when Ida Lupino makes her appearance the movie immediately improves. Not so here. When she arrives about a third of the way through the movie turns from a trucker movie to a noir/melodrama. It doesn't tank the film completely, just enough to keep me from recommending it. See more Joel P @RT09818457 04/25/2024 Plays like 2 different movies. First half, terrific. Drama about hardships of truckers. Bogart and Raft great, and Ann Sheridan sparkles with hard boiled dialogue. Second half near awfull, as usually convincing Ida Lupino saddled with over the top role as unfaithful wife, sex starved stalker. Sheridan and Bogart disappear from film. Plot becomes ridiculous. If it feels like a different film, it is. A remake of a previous Bette Davis film. Watch the first half. See more Steve D @RT35616104 03/17/2024 I found it sleep inducing. See more David K @RT61474040 05/16/2023 This film is a trademark Warners entry...gritty, blue-collar, tough talking guys and the dames that love them. The cast is phenomenal - Bogart, George Raft, Ida Lupino, and Ann Sheridan. Lupino's courtroom scene is over-the-top, but the rest of the movie works well. See more Read all reviews
