After their success with Out of the Past (1947), screenwriter Daniel Mainwaring and stars Robert Mitchum and Jane Greer are back in this light-hearted chase film with Don Siegel at the helm. Noir by association only (given its crime theme and the presence of other Noir stars like William Bendix), the action takes place in Mexico, where Patric Knowles has apparently absconded with the military payroll (in Mitchum's possession) and $2000 of Greer's money (a romance swindle). Bendix is Mitchum's superior officer who thinks Mitchum stole the money himself; Mitchum is chasing Knowles across Mexico to get it back with Bendix hot on his heels. Greer is along for the ride. There are a few twists but nothing gets as dark as you would see in a traditional noir - all told, it's good for a bit of fun but doesn't hit any deeper notes.

Exciting gangster/crime film. It's barely over an hour too so it's very fast-paced. Minor SPOILER WARNING for "Out of the Past" which came out 2 years earlier, also starring Mitchum and Greer: in case their tragic love story still hurts, this pairing of the two might serve as a remedy. Mitchum is his usual swaggerly self.

Thrilling chase through Mexico with a light-hearted touch to the characters that allows Robert Mitchum and Jane Greer a chance to strike up a romance as they follow the thief.

Dare I say the more I see Robert Mitchum, the less I like him? That's probably a little taboo. I am a big fan of Don Siegel, but this film failed to excite me in any way shape or form. I liked the idea behind combining a romantic comedy and a noir, however I don't think it was achieved as well as it might've been had it leaned on one side more than the other.

In this taut cat-and-mouse tale, all concerned are in top form.
