A crime melodrama that comes across more like its opposite genre -- farce. The exasperating plot complications develop around a bank robber's attempts to recover a bag of loot stashed idiotically in a streetcorner mailbox, and they are stretched out to ninety-minutes only because the characters behave with as much sense as chimpanzees. Michael Gwynne turns in a fine 1940s-style bit performance as a weasel-y nonentity who craves a piece of the action. But director Paul Wendkos runs the show as though he hasn't read the script, is simply in a hurry to move on to his next TV movie, and abandoned all interest and hope in this project as soon as Cybill Shepherd was signed to play the female lead. With Bo Svenson. (1977) — Duncan Shepherd
