Another one of those quota filling English first halves badly shot, directed and played in unconvincing B feature studio settings.

Because it departs from the crime formula, this one is actually above average with a jokey plot about an insurance clerk who becomes the terror of the underworld when he unconvincingly knocks down a couple of extras with his umbrella. Faint echoes of IRMA LA DOUCE.

The fetching Angela Douglas lacks star potential, looking working class and talking R.A.D.A.

The predictably boring life of a meek bookkeeper until fate transforms him into an underworld terror.
