Quotes:
Hunter: Do you keep cash around the office, do you?
Saul Abrahams: When your name is Abrahams, my dear Robert, you may eat with the best people and even sleep with one or two of them when they're in the mood, but you don't trust them - not ever... not completely. It may be peace in your time, but I don't think it's likely to remain peace in mine.
Hunter: Oh, Saul, for God's sake, you're as English as I am.
Saul Abrahams: And you're half-Irish.

A Superior Chase Film, 10 December 2006
9/10
Author: george_chabot from Georgia, USA

Rogue Male is a superior chase film with a superb characterization by Peter O'Toole, who occupies about 80% of the screen time.

Absolutely top-notch direction, cinematography, and editing and a respectable, not overlong, 103 minute running time.

It's a pity the DVDs have used such deteriorated source material.

The movie, if in perfect condition would be worth 10/10, as it is among the very best, however, as it is it is only worth about 7/10 because of the deterioration of the print.

If you get a chance to see Rogue Male, please do as it is worth it, even with the poor print.
