Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
nomoons11 I usually have a soft spot for these old WWII based films. After watching this one I think I'll be more selective on the next ones I wanna watch.As far as a plot point goes it's not too bad. Decent idea hatched but the execution was...well...just not too good. Trying to figure out who's the traitor is pretty easy. When the scene comes up where "The Scarf's" mother gets her head shaved for bein with a German, after that its all downhill from there. The acting wasn't bad at all but the script needed a serious re-working.I think even worse is some of the audio dubbing. It's laughable in some scenes. I can think of 1 scene where 2 characters are outside and the soundtrack they speak is clearly in a studio environment. It's just too funny.If you have to watch any and everything Clark Gable ever did then watch this, if not, skip this one and don't think twice about it.
margaretwestlake As someone working on creative and interesting plotting, I saw this intrigue movie as outstanding. I had to stay and watch just to find out who the 2-way spy was: was it Turner, was it Mature, oh my could it be Clark? I had no problem with the directing; I thought the last scene with Turner looking at Gable, searching his face for signs of hate or love was good.I had a problem with the one word title, although it was relevant; it did seem to point to one character as the good guy, so it was misleading if that was the intent. (I don't think this is a spoiler, let me know). I was glad the movie was in color; usually I prefer black and white on the older movies, however, the scenery et all was great in color.
getmeout2001 while i enjoyed seeing this film at least a dozen time,my memory always take me back to the first time i saw the in 1955 and it was the first war film i was allowed to watch,i fell in love with Lana turner and thought victor mature was a cad, well i was young and the actors were very convincing in their role. however my main comment is more like a question.., how can i obtain a recording of the song johnny come home? all i Learned from my searches that the voice belongs to that wonderful Diana Coupland, and no end of searches have led me to finding the song on the internet.to me the song gave the movie an atmosphere of what war is all about. but on the whole, its a movie i will watch whenever it is showing.
Neil Doyle Despite good performances from Lana Turner, Clark Gable and Victor Mature (in a colorful role as "The Scarf"), and some pretty location photography of Holland (filmed in Eastmancolor), there are script problems that render BETRAYED a contrived spy tale about the Dutch underground resistance to Nazis. As one reviewer noted, "at times it is hard to tell who Clark Gable, Lana Turner and Victor Mature are spying for" -- and the revelation that there is a traitor among them comes as no great surprise.Still, the story moves at a fair pace, Lana looks gorgeous even with a brunette hairdo, and the aging Clark Gable gives a quietly underplayed performance in his final role at Metro. Victor Mature comes off best in a colorful pivotal role. Wilfred Hyde-White, Louis Calhern and Roland Culver are wasted in supporting roles.All in all, an average spy melodrama bolstered by some fine location photography.For more about the film and Lana Turner, see my article on LANA TURNER: DANGEROUS CURVES in the Spring Issue 2002 of FILMS OF THE GOLDEN AGE magazine.
