★★★★ · 50's over lets get Married · Ann Smithy · 2010-06-18
This is a very good time capsule of the 50's, made in 1960. I love the dancing and the caucasion scene when America was rich and fun. B movie but good.
★★★★ · B movie with style · bandit2005 · 2010-06-19
I admit i love b movies,this one is especially good two young teens in love have a problem the ex boyfriend is a psychotic heroin addict,and his older brother is a pusher,not to mention the parents.its a b movie with style,i enjoyed it,it stars Gary Clarke who was also in how to make a monster and the infamous missle to the moon.date bait has the look and feel of an american international picture.i liked it.
★★★★ · watch for fun · flair · 2010-06-26
there's flair and drama . . and tramp-calling .
★★ · I so want to give away the ending... · kareneliot · 2010-06-17
But I won't. It was a mildly entertaining, predictable, slow mover. Some nice shots of old Las Vegas. I got a kick out of the dial telephones and pay radio.
