Director: Lewis Milestone
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
The Rat Pack plus sundry others, playing ex-army buddies, plan a grand heist in Las Vegas, relieving five casinos simultaneously of their loot. The antics of Sinatra & Co (complete with guest spots for the likes of Shirley MacLaine, George Raft and Red Skelton) become rather hard to bear, and the evocation of Las Vegas as a neon nightmare may possibly be unintentional, since the film was made by Sinatra's own company as an extended advertisement for the Clan's shows there. The heist itself, though, is a superb piece of movie-making.Author: ATu
