Very entertaining and a lot of good performances
28 April 2003
Surely this movie is not a masterpiece. The story is not really thrilling because it is to far away from real life. Sometimes you feel like you would be in a "penny novel" like we say in Austria. Non of the characters really has a deeper subscription.

But there are a lot of entertaining scenes (chasing the pig, inviting the girl...), sympathetic performances (by Mitchum, Hamilton, Parker, Sloane, Patten) and a good music.

An outstanding performance is given by George Peppard in one of his earliest movies. He is a rebel, very cool with great physical condition. I think he try to copy Paul Newman a bit but in my opinion I never saw Peppard more convincing.
