PUNQ

Rated 18 Feb 2020

A New York cabbie gets hired as a transportation expert on the rugged Burma Road. The story is honestly ridiculous, and, also honestly, thin. Kind of a rushed tie-in to the war hype now that America was finally getting involved. Barry Nelson wasn't exactly a established name to carry such a movie either, but I guess he did alright for what I mostly remember was his confidence and that truck/cliff scene.
