Review of Rampage

Rampage (1963)
5/10
Interesting cast but a poor film and a weak story
21 August 2020
I watched the film because of the cast. I am a fan of Mitchum, Martinelli, and Hawkins, All of them were at their best physical condition when they made the film, making the film worthwhile if you were a fan of any of the three. Silvia Koscina, the Yugoslavian actress, has a small role as a stewardess during a business class flight sequence. Interestingly, the noted Italian film director Mauro Bolognini had chosen both Martinelli and Koscina to act in his movies by a coincidence. .The film Rampage was ordinary, if not dumb with a story that has a very predictable ending,

Why is the film stupid? "The Enchantress" in the film is a leopard that apparently attracts Asian tigers in the story. The fact is a leopard is smaller than a grown tiger and they don't like each other and have different habitats. The film and the story suggest something else.

Finally to have a German actor Stefan Schnabel play an Asian village chief was poor casting.
