If you watch this independent Canadian flick, you're going to need all your mental faculties at the ready. I fell asleep three times and couldn't make heads or tails of it! I don't know why I found it so complicated, but it did involve a kidnapping, a group of assassins, an international conspiracy theory, and two police forces - perhaps it was just too much for me.
George Raft, Audrey Totter, William Bryant, and Peter van Eyck are the bad guys, gathered from everywhere from Germany to Brazil to get close to the people who are close to a Canadian scientist, George Dolenz. Do they just want information, or is there something more sinister going on? When the bodies start dropping like flies, that question starts answering itself. Edward G. Robinson, the head of either the Canadian or American police force (I really couldn't keep track), gets called in to crack the impossible case. He's faced with no witnesses, no fingerprints, no clues, and seemingly random bodies.
Unless what I have written really pops out at you, I don't think this movie will be your cup of tea. I love Edward G. Robinson, but he didn't seem to be very happy to be in this movie. George Raft's acting talents were pretty stinky, and even though he had the lead role, it didn't seem like he wanted to be in the movie either.
