Review of Beat the Devil (1953) by Patryk C — 26 Jul 2012

Beat the Devil is like a noir spoof that didn't work out very well. It mixes genres with no particular sense. Although filled with great actors and their remarkably humorous and performances as various oddballs, it disappoints with its bleak, and simple adventure story.

As harsh as it may seem at first, it's one of those Humphrey Bogart movies that aren't necessarily meant to be remembered.
