Virginia Mayo fits her role as the femme fatale like a glove in this. Except she is actually not in the movie that much as the sap she set up as a patsy winds up on the run for half the movie. Zachary Scott is good casting for this kind of character. Not a good guy per se, but less unsavory than his associates and now has to clear his name by any means necessary. The movie takes a lot of twists and turns though I cannot say the conclusion will be satisfying for everyone. It certainly wasn't for me.

This movie is ok, but skater4159's faux rating really brought the score down.

Nothing really was happening in this movie & just when I was about to give up & turn it off, the lawyer takes the murder rap for his girlfriend, (Who would do that?!) thinks he can get away with it but gets set up during the trial.I thought after that, I have to see how he gets himself out of this.That was the most exciting thing to happen in Flaxy Martin.I felt like it was all downhill from then on & Flaxy Martin became just another movie to add to my watchlist.I feel like if I decided then & there to turn it off, I wouldn't have missed anything at all.I was really disappointed because after almost giving up on the movie then being glad I didn't give up on it & then being disappointed again was a bummer.It felt like a total waste of time.Maybe you'll like Flaxy Martin but I didn't
