It's cool to see Ford and Hayworth in tropical climes getting into adventures again fighting off shady forces. I love the juxtaposition of Rita's dance numbers and the ballsy Glenn Ford beatdowns. I love the magical Uncle Remus-like maid character who has to tell the whiteys what to do. The guy who plays Max Fabian is the biggest jackass - it's hilarious how his face doesn't change even when he's riddled with bullets!

I am a real Rita Hayworth fan. This was some early work of hers. I guess she had to start somewhere. The performances were good, the acting was great, but the script was mediocre. I've seen better

I liked it. For a film noir, you can't go wrong. If they remade it today it would probably win an academy award. Rita Hayworth was considered the ultimate femme-fatale in her day; certainly she's far more sexy and talented than say, Angelina (I need to go to acting school) Jolie. There's also a good chemistry between her and the great Glen Ford who aways does everything well. The story wasn't as strong as "Gilda" nor was it as sexy, but it was entertaining and intriquing nonetheless.
