Rating: 3/5 -- It's a decent film, but its payoff just isn't up to the level of its buildup. Full Review

Phil Karlson's rote heist-revenge flick aims to be stone cold, but can't seem to get any frost to grow around its warm, mushy heart.

Rating: 3.5/4 -- A down and dirty picture with all the requisite blood, sweat and double-crosses. ... The biggest thrill is watching Jack Elam as the most nervous of the hoods. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

In Kansas City Confidential, four robbers hold up an armored truck, getting away with over a million dollars in cash. Joe Rolfe (John Payne), a down-on-his-luck delivery driver who is accused of involvement in the heist, sets out to discover who set him up and to exact revenge. He follows a trail that leads him to a web of hired killers and corrupt police in Mexico. Kansas City Confidential was the source of inspiration for QuentinTarantino's "Resevoir Dogs". An imaginative film noir classic, this is a fast-paced and highly entertaining gem!
