Date with Disaster

4/28/2024

This is an odd film - the cast don't gel at all. The story is the usual run-of-the-mill stuff as a gang carry out a robbery but soon discover, with the police on their tail, that one of their number isn't reliable so turn this case of robbery into one of murder. William Hartnell is the henchman who holds this together but Shirley Eaton and Tom Drake (presumably drafted in to bolster US box office attendance) have all the chemistry of yesterday's scrambled eggs. Decent enough production standards though the ending is a bit hammy.
