Dane Clark, Cathy O' Donnell, Jeff Corey, and Tom Drake with Good Support seek to Make this Pedestrian Picture Rise Above its Pedigree.
Almost but Not Quite.
The Movie is a One-Note Song about a No-Good Ex-Husband Preying on His Sweet Ex-Wife.
An Annoying Lech of a Police Sgt. Bullys the Mrs. In a Hard-to-Watch Scene and a Nosey Neighbor Irritates as well
O' Donnell is a Sweetie-Pie and the Detectives on the case are a Match for the Career Criminal Clark.
Some Suspense Ensues as the Police Close-In at a Ship-Yard Finale that is the Best this Effort can Offer.
Even the Title Gives the Thing Away.
It's an Unremarkable Straight-Forward Cops and Robbers Yarn that might Masquerade in Promotions as a Film-Noir. It Ain't.
The Good Actors and a Scene or Two that Stand-Out can't Rise the Movie Above Average.
A Rather Ho-Hum B-Movie, but for Die-Hard Crime Genre Fans...
Worth a Watch.
