03/03/2021 I was surprised at how much I really, really enjoyed this movie. Dan Duryea is outstanding, as is Jayne Mansfield in a rare dramatic role. See more 12/19/2020 Different kind of a role for Dan Duryea; more introspective than the showy crime guys he generally plays. Here he is an older, conflicted low-level crook who is trying to look out for a half-sister. Jayne Mansfield plays the sister. The acting between Duryea and Mansfield is over-the-top and needed more restraint... visually this film is super.

See more 04/02/2020 Just watching a young Jane Mansfield is enough to recommend this movie but Dan Duryea does a nice turn here, playing the usual unsavory character. Peter Capell's character is played with manic sincerity. See more 11/11/2013 The typical heist gone wrong set-up is a helluva lot of fun with a young Jayne Mansfield and a buncha desperate characters after an emerald necklace, building to a nice climax in a funhouse. Recommended. See more 06/14/2013 An underrated and overlooked gem, The Burglar is a very stylized film for a B movie. Wendkos uses striking camera angles and far-out set pieces to frame what is essentially a psychological story about family loyalty. good noir from the second noir cycle See more Read all reviews
