I Escaped from the Gestapo

The Nazi menace has spread into America. Torgut Lane (Dean Jagger) is a forger prisoner. He escapes with help from a group of Nazi spies. He is forced to help them print counterfeit bills.

This film is also called No Escape. It's wartime propaganda. The premise is far from realistic. The story is messy. Torgut is way too blasé and that saps away any tension for the first half. The audience doesn't care about this guy and there is no rooting interest. The story is too bland for too long. There is a bit of noir style. It's a B-movie but it still needs to be thrilling. Even propaganda films need to be good.
