Plot
A dying thief tells a car-crash bystander where a fortune is buried, and a group of strangers set off in a frantic race to find it. The police captain who has been waiting years for this thief to lead him to his loot watches them all with growing exasperation. A huge ensemble of comedians fills the film.
Sinekatalog’s take
A giant, noisy road comedy and an unusual film in Kramer's catalogue of serious films. Some gags run long, but the stunts and the endless parade of comic faces are a delight.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
