🔍 Search on JustWatch →The action here isn't perfunctory — it's considered, with internal logic. The staging of fights and chases shows a director who knows the genre from the inside.
A well-made ride. Doesn't claim depth, but does its job honestly and without boredom.
For those who appreciate a solidly made genre film without pretensions.
Director: Samuel Fuller
