First, an issue which bothered me throughout the film. The opening credits announce that this is CinemaScope, and the aspect of the video is certainly widescreen. But I had a feeling throughout that I was watching a rather uninspired pan-and-scan version. One constant irritation was that the lower center of virtually any scene was outside of the frame. What should be the center of the frame was actually just above the bottom, giving the unfortunate impression that the scene was shot in the traditional aspect and was then cropped into widescreen.
Aside from the camera placement issue, the remainder of the film was generally routine--a safe, inoffensive movie.
