I don't know if I could trust George Montgomery with allied secrets since he didn't even seem to know that the Russian doctor in complete uniforms standing before him was a woman (Annabella). They have just climbed down the walls of a Nazi prison with Kent Taylor and are in hiding when he makes this discovery. Montgomery is seeking revenge for the violent murder of his brother who had parachuted out of the plane that Montgomery was piloting to land behind enemy lines. German pilot Martin Kosleck took great pleasure in gunning down the brother so Montgomery will take great pleasure in taking care of Kosleck.
It's pretty enjoyable with its light-hearted atmosphere in spite of all of the ridiculousness of the details of the story. There's an obnoxious little boy in an SS uniform acting like he's the fuhrer's right hand man, screaming orders at Montgomery and Annabella, simply pick up and tossed out of the room by Montgomery before discovering that the two are wanted by the SS. So many other implausibilities, and always fun to pick out, because they just seem to get even more absurd. This wasn't played as a comedy however because the Nazis are not buffoons. So the mixes of moods becomes perplexing, and it's an unrealistic view of espionage during the great war for freedom and the protection of democracy.
