what a waste, 3 March 2005
2/10
Author: armen-17 from United Kingdom

What a waste of the great Akim Tamiroff this movie is. He is the one redeeming feature in a film containing some of the most desperately wooden performances ever inflicted on a paying audience. The bint playing the female lead is particularly awful but at least there is some entertainment value in admiring her ghastliness. Broderick Crawford is dispensed of all too soon by the big bird of the title. Check those feathery talons as they swoop down and carry him away to freedom from the surrounding turgidness.Oh Akim! It may have seemed a good idea on paper, and you are genuinely creepy and genuinely scene stealingly watchable as ever, but this tosh was completely unworthy of your presence.Admire the great man in Topkapi,The Way of all Flesh etc. instead.
