Best movie ever!

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

The idea is certainly novel, but the plot, dialogue and characters are not. In fact, the story is full of holes and wild implausibilities, especially in the last five minutes when the long-awaited climax at last transpires. Even here, the action is rather tame; but elsewhere there is no action at all, just seemingly endless talk. On the credit side of the ledger, however, the girls (Lisa Daniely as the femme fatale, and Leigh Madison as the official heroine) are fairly attractive. But on the other hand, Godfrey Grayson's relentlessly routine direction stacks up as a distinct negative. Production values also register as strictly minor. The sets are cramped and the writers have mustered all the usual "B"-grade devices of filling-in-time. The movie's length could come down to 20 minutes with ease. Colin Tapley is a security guard. Nora Gordon is the landlady, Mrs Barlow. Production manager: John Draper. Assistant director: Geoffrey Helman. Sound editor: John Smith. Howell was the sound supervisor.

Wow, what a good surprise this time again!! OK this is not a masterpiece, but not a lousy film either. The screenplay is from the great Brian Clemens, please...The story of an ex circus acrobat, now a TV repairman, who falls in love, a real trap, with a beautiful brunette, a perfect "femme fatale", who pushes him in a daring heist. A robbery where there must be a good air artist stunt to switch an alarm system off. But the lead female character of the movie is the accomplice of a real killer, the master thief of the heist...Unfortunately, the following is foreseeable. No surprise in the ending. But the 65mn of this movie are not long at all to spend. Not too much talk.Try it.
