Director: Gordon Douglas
Starring: Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr.
Synopsis:
During a hostile takeover of the Chicago underworld, one man and his crew hold out against all odds.
Impressions:
Okay. Transplant Robin Hood to Prohibition-era Chicago and put the Rat Pack in the roles. There, you've got your movie. If you like the Rat Pack's dynamic, then you'll like this movie. It's pretty funny and there are some good songs. My personal favorite is Sammy Davis Jr.'s song and dance number "Bang! Bang!" Besides the Rat Pack, I want to give props to Peter Falk as Guy Gisborne. This is a pretty funny comedy and definitely worth a watch. Given how troubled production was (read up on it), seeing it is the least you can do.
