Review of Lured (1947) by Suzanne S — 29 Apr 2010
Worth seeing for Ball's performance and especially Karloff's, but it's too long by a good 15 minutes, and terribly cliched. George Sanders is dreadfully miscast; there's not only no chemistry between him and Ball, he is completely unconvincing as a romantic lead.
Formulaic plot destroys any suspense that we might have felt; we know who didn't do it from the beginning, and we know "who done it" much, much too early.
