Castle Directs with a Confident and Brightly Lit Tone with Suave Gene Barry, Playing Against Type as a Moving and Shaking Cad in the Oil Business.
Another One of those "City" Exposes that Highlight said City's Underbelly.
In this Film, since it's Mobbed-Up Oil Tycoons, Everyone Dresses-Up and the Dirty-Deeds are Done with Gangsters and Hit-Men far Removed from the Drug-Dens, Pool-Rooms, and Cat-Houses.
Barry Gives a Sizzling Hyped-Up Performance, being the "New-Guy" in the "Organization" and has to Fight for Every Break.
Barbara Hale is also Sizzling, but in another way, with a Platinum Blonde Doo and a Sexy Voice.
She is a Vulnerable but Volatile Femme-Fatale.
The Movie is Above Average for its Type that Contains a Good Script, Good Performances and Plenty of Brutal Violence.
It's Formulaic to a Fault but Nevertheless Worth a Watch.
