Not as cinematically compelling as Lang's earlier work, but it's a tense nail-biter as you wonder what will be Robinson's undoing. There's some Raskolnikov moments as he discusses the case with his pal, the district attorney. The conclusion seems at first to be a major cop-out, but it's actually pretty clever. Lang manages to get an ending, albeit a "false" one, that would have been forbidden under the Hayes Code. The final seconds of the film, however, involve a rather hokey bit of comedy.
