1950s crime thriller the big combo have some good point represent some nice acting in the minor role ( lee van cleef performance among them ) and an interestingly sympathetic portrayal of some of the lesser villain and and a lively and entertain pace . but it also have a ropey plot and poor act from the three lead woman ( include the beautiful jean wallace ) and it one lead man and cornel wilde and and a suave but unmenacing villain and the blandly name mr. brown . there be also some moment where low production value produce moment that might be from a comic strip represent the private airport set identify by nothing ( such a an aeroplane or runway ) that reveal it function but simply by a sign read private airport and for example while or the box of labelled dynamite . the end be also weak and not because the idea ( a shoot out in the fog ) be bad and but because it impossible to believe and while watch it and that youre see anything other than one man alone in a studio pretending to be in a fight . it still quite fun and but if they do not make movie like this any more and there be a reason for it .
