To Chase A Million

About This Movie

To Chase A Million is quite the ride, isn't it? This 1967 action-adventure-thriller has a certain gritty charm. The pacing is relentless, keeping you on the edge with McGill racing through the shadows of Lisbon, all while being pursued by both the CIA and some pretty ruthless Russian operatives. The themes of betrayal and survival resonate well, and you can feel the tension build with each twist. It's fascinating how the film captures the paranoia of the Cold War era. The performances are solid, especially the way McGill navigates through danger with a mix of wit and desperation. It’s a bit of a hidden treasure in the genre, really.

To Chase A Million has not seen many reissues, making it somewhat elusive for collectors. The film was released on VHS and has had a few DVD printings, but it’s a bit sparse in the Blu-ray department. Its scarcity, combined with the intriguing plot and unique Cold War context, has sparked interest among genre enthusiasts. Many collectors appreciate its raw atmosphere and how it encapsulates the era's film-making style.
