Great fun to watch Bogie and Bacall, but there's not much to recommend the movie beyond their chemistry.

Points for mood and atmosphere, but minus points for being utterly incomprehensible. Even reading the Wikipedia plot summary after having watched the movie is pretty rough--maybe I'm just dense, but I struggled to follow anything that happened here, which was unfortunate.

Who honestly cares about the - let's say convoluted - story? It just looks beautiful and I can't stop watching Bogart doing his thing: wearing his hat, rocking his trench coat, bantering with virtually every women he encounters. Plus: the cars. It's just beautiful.

Most interesting detail: instead of licence plates those cars had some kind of registration card attached to their steering wheel (but seemingly no door locks).

There comes a point in the film where trying to follow the plot becomes secondary to just watching Bogart spar with just about every secondary character in the film. That’s probably for the best since the actual plot and mystery become incredibly confusing and it’s the interplay between the characters that keeps this entertaining. It’s no surprise that the scenes between Bogart and Bacall are the highlight as Bacall is pretty much the only one in the film that can hold her own with Bogart, but this is primarily a showcase for Bogart’s charisma and star power that few have been able to replicate.

Cinema Paco 2: great classic black cinema, with great actors, direction, style. That Humphrey Bogart, that Lauren Bacall

Hard to follow without using Wikipedia as a guide. MUST be watched more than once.
