Movie Reviews

Hollywood Reporter - 7/10 by Alan R. HowardA good genre film in the ice cold vein of The Maltese Falcon. It isn't nearly as rich nor fine as that early Huston classic but tells an interesting story with a sure sense of atmosphere, location and supporting characters.
DVDLaser - 6/10 by Douglas PrattFor the most part the film is standard fare, with plot discrepancies countered by the film's atmosphere and star appeal.
New York Times - 4/10 by Vincent CanbyThe screenplay by Walter Hill... has very little to do with character and motivation and everything to do with the incidents and the mechanics of the spy trade.
Chicago Sun-Times - 4/10 by Roger EbertThe movie is irritating in its refusal to make things clear; if spy movies are going to work like clockwork, they have to be put together with some care.
User Review - 10/10 by Carlos FOne of my favorite films. A excellent character study. An exploration into what lurks inside the human mind and, as a result, human behavior.
User Review - 8/10 by Deadly VJohn Huston, Walter Hill, and Paul Newman go to Great Britain
User Review - 8/10 by Timothy MOk so this film is a bit hokey in places and John Huston has done better work ,but on the whole this spy thriller crossed with Heist, prison escape movie is a solid watch and has plenty of twists and turns along the way. Newman plays Joseph Reardon a man tasked with uncovering a nest of spies and double dealings at the heart of the establishment. Huston has a lot of fun Putting Newman through the ringer ,giving him a jailbreak ,a beatting and a car chase before the final showdownin Malta. The film contains a great cast including Michael Horden,Harry Andrews and James Mason. The only real problem is Domnique Sandra ,her accent hinders her performance no end and her part comes up short as a result. Other than that Walter Hills script is in good hands here and Husrons use of locations gives the film an egde a lesser director would have missed. Solid thriller and worth a second look
User Review - 8/10 by Conner RIt's sort've odd to hear Paul Newman with an Australian accent and not his usual charismatic self, but this is still a very interesting career move for him and it just shows his wide range. I really like the prison/escape scenes and just the overall feel. Even though it doesn't become more than a semi-James Bond, it's fun enough to stand on its own.
User Review - 8/10 by Tom HAwesome film from the master John Huston. Paul Newman does a great job as always. i loved the escape sequence. not the prison escape but the escape at the mansion in Ireland.
User Review - 8/10 by Tim KI found it refreshing among all the present super-hero/action/ explosions type of stuff that the movies seem to be all about these days. If you get a good kick to your stomach you are down for a while, the car can drop down without huge flames. Nice, honest.
