Almost exactly a beat-for-beat remake of HIGH SIERRA. The major difference, of course, is casting. I like Jack Palance, but he doesn't have the world-weariness or charm of Bogart. Likewise, I'm very fond of Shelley Winters, but what she does best is playing pathetic, and this character can't be pathetic. You just end up wanting Palance to ditch her. I just felt like I'd already seen it and the update doesn't do any real updating. A competent but pointless endeavor, stick with Bogart and Lupino.

there's no real reason anyone should watch this

Second remake of _High Sierra_. Still not as good as original. The only cool thing about it is that it has Lon Chaney Jr. in it
