Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Made for spare change like the rest of his flurry of late, worthwhile B-pictures, this is yet another example of Dwan's enterprise under pressure. He gets a scathing performance out of Milland, for instance, as the crook with a wad of hot money he needs to smuggle into Mexico, proves characteristically at home with the expanses of CinemaScope, and blithely proceeds with a storyline that oh-so-conveniently marries off the villain's old flame to border guide Quinn.Author: TJ
