This film is enjoyable enough while it plays, but I found it didn't wholly resonate with me. After the end credits, I was on to the rest of my evening, with nary another thought about the film. Despite this, Robert Mitchum is excellent as the title character. His performance here makes me want to check out more of his work. Definitely a "guys" movie, this. Female viewers are likely to get bleary-eyed, particularly if they have an aversion to gangster/heist films.
