Very fast paced story with twists here and there. The cinematography wasn't particularly interesting even though it's being credited as the kickstarter of film noir and I felt there was a lack of suspense during the entire film. I haven't read the book it is based upon, but my guess would be the story is much better fitted for the written word than moving pictures.

Awesome in the context of 1941, not so great when compared to the next 75 years worth of films. The plot is a too twisty for its own good.

Spade: "We didn't exactly believe your story, Miss Wonderly. We believed your 200 dollars. I mean, you paid us more than if you had been telling us the truth, and enough more to make it all right."
