| User ReviewNick SNicely paced and keeps you interested all the time. Far better than the latest Hollywood efforts. Filmed in glorious technicolour :) |
| User ReviewHarim Ka different side of gregory peck, saltier |
| User ReviewScott Ra solid, gritty Cold War film with a surprisingly aggressive performance from Peck |
| User ReviewAndrew IWhat a drag that was! The attempts at humour were so weak as to be hardly discernible, and the intrigue of the plot so drawn out that although I could just about follow it, I could hardly wake myself up enough to care. No action to speak of, no real music apart from a horribly random-sounding opening theme, not much of anything really. 5.5/10 |
| User ReviewNoel KA decent post WWII thriller with Gregory Peck in an uncommon (for him) role of being a borderline unlikeable guy! |
