[Sammy Davis Jr., Joey Bishop, and Mort Sahl] have been dragged in as a desperate attempt to camouflage a low budget melodrama that would otherwise be remarkable only for its dogged avoidance of anything unusual.

Joseph Landon's script has more holes in it than a Swiss cheese but he stuffs most of them with action and director William Asher cuts the action in thick slices.

Fast-paced and compelling.

Henry Silva... makes a strong bid for stardom on his own with this rousing crime melodrama reminiscent of the gangster films which flourished in the 1930-40 period.
