Pretty fun heist movie, featuring early performances by Hayden and Monroe. It's the sort of movie that really suffers under the Production Code, because of course rules have to be followed in order for moral righteousness to prevail. It helped to create a genre, but never quite excelled for me--others will do it better. But still, not bad.

This is a terrific picture and I wept a little at Dix and the horses at the very end. It got to me.

Great film noir about a money heist gone all wrong. Great movie with great performances by great character actors.

Experience has taught me never to trust a policeman. Just when you think one's all right, he turns legit.

Out of MGM, The Asphalt Jungle is directed by John Huston and based on the novel of the same name by W.R. Burnett. It stars Sterling Hayden, Jean Hagen, Sam Jaffe, Louis Calhern, James Whitmo More
