Rollicking good thriller, with a surprising number of nice Powell and Pressburger touches for their first film.

Enjoyable, war time thriller. Dated but not too predictable, so entertaining enough.

The first meeting of Powell and Pressburger. A decent spy thriller that rises above the usual rah-rah wartime propaganda and allows a human face for the Germans. You can definitely see the beginnings of that P&P touch, although there is also an annoying inconsistency in when they have Germans speaking English or German. It makes the early parts of the film rather confusing... also the music often drowns out the dialogue. The plot is kind of hackneyed too, but heck, it's entertaining enough.
