Reviews from Letterboxd

1. John Charles — ★★½
   “It’s a decent, if undistinguished mystery with occasional action sequences, but not much that is likely to stay in your memory.”
2. GoldMod — ★★★
   “Too early to be a Poliziotteschi. Too unstylized to be a giallo. Too grounded to be Eurospy. A genre film with no genre.”
3. Bengt1989 — ★★★★
   “Early giallo of the Hitchcockian variety.”
