Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

HotToastyRag It's pretty much his signature for Robert Mitchum to take his shirt off in his movies, but it's not every day you get to see him in the bathtub! "If you're a good girl, I'll let you scrub my back," he jokes when he thinks room service has come into his hotel room. Ladies, you might want to rent The Angry Hills if you want to see him adjusting the faucet with his feet. And where else can you see Robert Mitchum go to a nightclub and hide his eyes in embarrassment as a topless singer dances at his table? It's pretty hilarious, and perhaps the most blatant "Take that, Code!" movie I've ever seen. Maybe an edited version was released in the United States, because I can't imagine a scene like that being released without any uproar from critics and censors. This movie does have a plot, though, besides bathtub scenes and topless scenes. Robert Mitchum gets hold of a list of collaborators to the Greek Resistance, and while he tries to help the Greek people, he also has to dodge Nazis and undercover Nazis who want to steal the list. He doesn't know who he can trust, and when Elisabeth Muller comes into the picture for romance, she just might have an ulterior motive. If you like these types of movies, there's nothing really wrong with this one. It's pretty typical of the genre, but unless you really like underground resistance movies set during WWII, you probably won't come across it.

edwagreen Reporter on his way home to America is given a list with the names of Greek collaborators, as Nazi Germany is about to gobble up Greece in 1941.He is chased throughout the country by the Germans and has his lover, her brother and father killed in the process. He also falls in with one of the collaborators, who is also in love with a Nazi official. Theodore Bikel portrays a cowardly Greek man working for the Nazis.To me, the ending is rather bizarre and questionable. Stanley Bakes plays the conflicted lover of the collaborator, who ultimately questions his duty when it calls for the killing of her two young children from a failed marriage.The movie is not satisfying.

whpratt1 Always liked Robert Mitchum in most of his films and for some reason did not view this late 1950's film. This film is suppose to take place in Greece during the year 1941 and is occupied by the lunatic Nazi forces. Robert Mitchum,(Mike Morrison), is an Army officer who manages to somehow get involved with some very secret information that can help the underground forces in Greece to destroy the Nazi strong holds during WWII. Mike Morrison meets up with a Greek gal and becomes romantically involved with her along with an other young gal who is very confused about what to do with her children. It is rather long and drawn out and at the same time, Robert Mitchum seemed very bored with his role and gave very little enthusiasm. The film wound up being very boring and way too long. The Nazi officer in charge was always sick and complained about not having a PULSE !

hengir Based on the Leon Uris novel 'The Angry Hills' is a disappointment. This is a long rambling film and and Mitchum has a long ramble through it, just about acting. Characters appear and disappear, the plot wavers, stops and starts. There are other interesting actors equally wasted; Sebastian Cabot, Donald Wolfit, Marius Goring, and tough guy Stanley Baker doesn't even get to face off with Mitchum. Theodore Bikel comes out better with a sad but sympathetic performance, even when being nasty.The female characters are thinly drawn.The best things are the clear, crisp photography and the extensive use of location shooting. The hills may be angry but they sure look pretty.
