Cairo

1963, Movie, NR, 92 mins

starstarstarstar
This competent caper film, shot on location in Egypt, stars Sanders as a criminal mastermind who arrives in Cairo to steal the Tut-Ankh-Amen jewels. The plot was hatched while Sanders was in prison and, upon his release, he forms a gang of thieves and sets the plan in motion. It fails when a series of minor oversights and miscalculations doom the robbers. The suspense is weakened by some glaring plot holes and a museum that is ridiculously easy to rob. leave a comment
Master thieves set their sights on King Tut's jewels in this remake of The Asphalt Jungle set in Cairo (1963).
