Review of 5 Against the House (1955) by Bruce B — 05 Jun 2011
What was enjoyable in this movie was seeing actors that later in life became more famous then this movie would make them. Brian Keith, smoking away as the tough guy who later played Uncle Bill in Family Affair, William Conrad who was later in Cannon and Jake and the Fat Man, and the beautiful Kim Novak, and many more.
All combined to make a film about some college students going to Las Vegas to hold up a casino, Brian Keith plays the war veteran from the Korean War who's just not fully recovered from the things he saw and did, So this makes for a bad road ahead.
Its Film Noir, and worth 3 stars.
