Review
A star rating of 2 out of 5.
Robyn Karney
Tough-guy Tony Curtis is dispatched to Macao by a gang of criminals to bring back, by force if necessary, Joanne Dru, the widow of a racketeer who possesses incriminating evidence against them. Much cross and double-cross later, involving among other things Macao's chief criminal (Lyle Bettger), the plot complications are resolved and love triumphs. Directed by the once-great European cameraman-turned-director Rudolph Maté, this sub-noir gangster film-cum-romance is, as you would expect, good-looking and technically proficient, but otherwise downbeat and dreary, its stars - like the script - lacking excitement.
