Ernie K @ErnieK 11/24/2024 Quintessential, dark, brooding, surprising noir, featuring a dynamite performance by Ralph Meeker as Mike Hammer as he portrays a man of intuition, violence, desire, and even occasional compassion. As hardboiled as they come, he also wishes to help a woman in great distress, and in the process there are dizzying twists and turns. A mid-50's watch that will still satisfying the noir fan - as well as anyone appreciating offbeat but compelling film making.

Has all the signposts of a great noir but the intrigue is never adequately paid off or developed. Just ends with this pseudo nuclear nonsense. Watched on DVD. See more Andrew L @RT39837635 08/09/2024 Robert Aldrich gets Mickey Spillane's most famous character right in this film noir that takes a simple plot and raises the stakes to where the main character, an inexpensive private eye with little-to-no morals named Mike Hammer, has to stop a global catastrophe. See more acsdoug D @acsdoug 07/31/2024 Ralph Meeker looks the part of a tough guy detective, but he doesn't sound like one. That high pitched voice of his really detracts from the character. Maybe if he was a better actor he could overcome that deficiency. Still the film has all you could wish for in a detective noir: thugs. violence and pretty dames. Good enough for me. See more nick s @Nick_S 03/07/2024 Surprisingly gritty movie with an unsympathetic main character who doesn't stay within social guardrails. Lots of eye catching locations as he follows the clues around town. Some of the editing was a bit rough, the acting had some soft patches and the plot was merely squeezing one person after another to uncover the macguffin. However, all that doesn't take away from the fact this was excellent entertainment. See more Read all reviews
