There's a point early on when you might get the sneaking suspicion you're watching a remake of "The Wages of Fear": two broke foreigners in a Latin American city hired to transport volatile nitro through bandit territory to raise enough money to buy a ticket to get away... but it takes a quick turn into a love triangle as Gary Cooper has to fight off his bad news ex-girlfriend Barbara Stanwyck who has settled for oil man Anthony Quinn but wants him back at any cost. Ruth Roman completes the strong main cast as Coop's new love interest. Unfortunately the material lets them all down, veering into melodrama, but is a watchable, quirky noir-ish western all the same. 11 years 2 months ago
