one of films who has, at first sigh, one virtue - preserves the flavor of its time. the clichés, the entire story, the romance, the portrait of bad guy. in fact, it is little more than a film from the "50's. the underwater scenes are the basic argument. in same measure, the music. and the work of Jon Hall to give a realistic character, with traces of coherent past, with the virtues of the hero in the shell of the image of brave man. sure, it is far to be a memorable film. but it gives a nice story, not complex but decent made, with Nan Adams in a interesting role of victim - temptation and John Farrow in a role for who he does the best.exoticism, creepy details, fight scenes, the truth known only by the viewer and the tricks of bad guy. a simple recipes. and a film seductive fr its old flavor. that is all.
