LouHomey From my favorite movies..

Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Neil Welch Robert Mitchum and Jack Hawkins are tasked with bringing big cats - tigers and a panther - back from Malaysia to Berlin. In the company of Elsa Martinelli, Hawkins' young protégé and lover. Hawkins' behaviour becomes erratic and hostile as Martinelli's attraction to Mitchum grows.The attractive and colourful location work (with Hawaii standing in for Malaysia), the hunting sequences, Elmer Bernstein's score, and solid performances from the three principals all add up to a film which would have been a successful movie back in 1963, displaying good production values if somewhat soapy in its central eternal triangle story. It all seems a bit dated now, though.Incidentally, for those people who refer to this movie being located in Africa, please note that there are no tigers in Africa.

edwagreen This was some dull film. The moderator on TCM said that Bob Mitchum agreed to do it so that he could take his family on a Hawaiian vacation. The so called African scenery was shot in Hawaii. Mitchum would have been far better off had he skipped Hawaii that year.The scenes in Africa are dull. The trapping of the so called cat was nothing to talk about. Jack Hawkins plays the guy who asks Mitchum to go on the expedition. He has taken in Elsa Martinelli at the age of 14; she is grown now and he wants to continue to possess her. He tries to show his manliness when he enters the cave where the cat is.I was wondering where the rampage was when the trio leave Africa and head back to the German zoo. Go know that the Hawkins character would go berserk and unleash the cat as the train enters the station. Even the so called rampage on the German streets is minimal at best. The residents of the building where the cat is are told to make loud noises. I think they were told this to wake up the audiences in the theaters viewing this garbage.

theprofromdover To whom it may concern-I just want to find out if this movie can be purchased.If so,where?I saw it years ago.The color and music were great.Mitchum is always great i just need to ask this question i just need to ask this question i just need to ask this question where can i buy this film.why can i not ask question in less than ten lines when a simple answer will do.i have been looking for this movie for years and it would be very cordial of you to provide me with this information.Why do i need to ask a simple question in ten lines?Is there another format i can go to where a simple question such as where can i purchase this film can be answered?

brooks-13 This movie is underrated. Robert Mitchum is at his laid-back best as the trapper and Elsa Martinelli is sexy and strong in the female lead. Jack Hawkins is fine, and it's nice to see Sabu in a strong role after The Jungle Book. The musical score (by Elmer Bernstein) is melodic, almost as good as his Magnificent Seven soundtrack. Set this all in verdant Africa with a tiger hunt thrown in, and it makes for good viewing.
