STUCK WITH STACK
Exhibiting all the charisma of a cardboard box, Robert Stack plays a military cop who goes undercover in order to infiltrate a gang of American ex-GIs (led by the suave Robert Ryan) who are into big time robbery in 1950s Tokyo. Filmed in lovely Cinemascope and directed by cult director Sam Fuller, this should have been a better flick. That it isn't is due to a banal plot, an totally unconvincing love interest involving Stack and the forgettable Shirley Yamaguchi, and most of all, to the uninspired, wooden performance of Stack himself. Hard to believe he was the first choice for this role. Trekkies will enjoy spotting "Bones" as a member of Ryan's gang.
