Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!

AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

wilvram A movie equivalent of one of those 1950s gaudy crime paperbacks, this low budget effort starts down a familiar path but is still able to provide its share of suspense and surprises.The lovely Anne Baxter, though a long way from ALL ABOUT EVE is an attractive heroine albeit with an accent that has a tendency to disappear at times. She obtains work in the carnival through Joe (Steve Cochran)whose pocket she has picked out of desperation and then becomes a partner of Lyle Bettger in a high-dive act. This is an intriguing start as Bettger often played sneering villains and Joe seems decent enough at first, though we soon learn that this is not the case. Steve Cochran was ideal in this sort of role.There is an incredibly similar sequence featuring a high-diver who jumps into a blazing tank in a section of the British film ENCORE, released two or three years before, which may have given the makers of this film some ideas.

h_gray1 No - that's not my opinion of the movie -- but a possible alternative title. Cecil B's classic a couple of years earlier caused a resurgence of movies with Circus/Carnival themes. To me this movie comes across almost as a knock-off. They even cast Lyle Bettger. It's as if GSOE had been rewritten as a Harlequin paperback.Personally - - if I want a more or less serious circus movie - I'll watch the classic. - if I want a light formula romance with a circus theme - I'll skip ahead a few years and catch Roustabout.Still - as mentioned by others - anything with Anne Baxter is definitely worth a box of popcorn and a couple of hours out of your life.

l-loch A waste of time. The characters are all so unlikeable you really don't care if the writer kills them all off. Which is what he should have done. I was surprised that so many usually very talented actors were just plain awful. It was like they were just reading a script. No feeling... Just walking through it. Ms. Baxter, at times had an accent and at times did not have an accent. She was doing so much overacting as were the others that at times it had a comic effect. I am sure that this is not what the writer of this script had in mine. Don't bother or waste your time watching. I sat through the whole thing thinking it would get better...it didn't. Then the end was anti-climatic and really answered no questions at all. Read a good book instead

imogen.chiv As I remember it, this was an exciting movie of the day and it still stands up to the test in my opinion. Steve Cochran was still the right age to look good and so was Anne Baxter. His character has caught up with her again, and they have some history together. She has got a job in a circus with a high diving swimmer. I remember the diver for his unique soft voice. He was the "goody" in the film. Anne Baxters character doesn't want to take up with him again and Steve Cochran sort of become a stalker, hanging around the tent at night and giving a low whistle. The dim witted strong man of the circus is a little in love with her himself and will do anything to protect her. The three main characters are all good looking people which puts this film at it best. There is also the technical and interesting stuff of climbing a high ladder and looking down at a drum of water that looks like you are going to dive into just a teacupful of water for you are seemingly so high. Anne Baxter is also expected to learn how to do this. Steve Cochran is bothering her... And watch out for the Big Wheel. A wonderful film.
