      Audience Member The greatest mystery/ thriller ever, LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All ages admitted. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Frances H Not a great spy film--I'm sure the book was better--Eric Ambler usually is. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/22/20 Full Review Audience Member Interesting spy thriller with James Mason and Herbert Lom. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Mystery whodunnit with a decent pace in James Mason's desperate investigation to clear his name, although in reality it is a fairly simplistic to make studio production.
