The Breaking Point

There were tons of such productions, cheap ones of course, in the early sixties, thanks to Butchers Prod and Danzigers too, among many other lesser companies...Tons, most of them forgettable just after viewing. Montgomery Tully, Lance Comfort, Vernon Sewell were the most notorious directors for such stuff. Never long but sometimes a bit talkative, nothing to do with Warner Bros style of the forties for instance. Rarely fast paced...Mostly crime and not so many horror, leaving this to masters such as Terry Fisher, Freddie Francis.... This one is not that amazing; I expected an armored car attack scheme, rough, brutal.... Nothing of the kind actually, but it remains an acceptable time waster, mostly saved by the exciting last ten minutes and a delightful climax. The problem with this movie is that the lack of budget was terribly missing.
