Camero W Better than 90% of movies that were made in the last 10 years. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/08/24 Full Review nick s Classic noir vibe with some good acting performances. Reasonably good story, though a little overstretched. There were some flaws (including illogical character actions) but still entertaining. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/09/24 Full Review Steve D Solid but not remarkable crime film. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Fair film noir entry by Anthony Mann. The plot is a rather simple and the dialogue unspectacular, but John Ireland turns in a wonderfully villainous performance. The climax is marred by goofy and unnecessary music score. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member It is always great to see Hugh Beaumont. Solid actor who was used far too little by Hollywood and tv land. John Ireland was also very good in the movie and definitely carries the show. Sheila Ryan and Jane Randolph perform well but, nothing memorable. It is a good little movie and too bad Beaumont didn't appear in more movies. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member year s/b 1947 not 2003 very good noir pic.
