Brilliant opening, with all the directorial flair that Carol Reed would bring to bear in the (superior) Third Man. The heist, getaway, and escape are thrillingly shot, full of canted angles and propulsive editing. It started to falter for me in the second half, as the movie follows Johnny going from house to house looking for refuge. Mason is the most interesting actor in the film, but the movie isn't about his character so much as it is a meditation on others' attitudes and reactions toward him. This is a great idea, but I would have recast the whole thing.
