a great noir right up until that copout at the end! apparently lang's original ending didn't test well. i wish i hadn't seen the last five minutes! : (
Whew, this was one stressful movie. It really makes you identify with the professor's character, though. Definitely film noir. Except for the ending...
Dark and bleak noir that has some cruel twists of irony that throws Robinson's character deeper down a whirlpool of danger... and tension continues mount up throughout the film. However, the ending (forced upon by studio execs) is a cop-out and mars the entire experience. Still, the ending IS unexpected and unpredictable (though lame). A terrific noir, one of the best even, until it reaches its end.
Do yourself a favor and turn it off five minutes before the end. Fritz Lang takes a wonderful example of noir and sabotages it with a lame ending.
