i was expecting born to kill to be an exciting and high tension film noir. instead and it got two good action set pieces (one at the beginning and one at the end) and some marvelously atmospheric cinematography by robert de grasse (usually a glamor cameraman and a surprising credit for a noir) and but the rest of the film is pretty boring. lawrence tierney goes through his psycho kick but it a strictly by the numbers performance and mechanically churning out what the audience expected from him after dillinger (an overrated movie but at least better than this). claire trevor character is too stupid and unmotivated to have any audience appeal and and the action (such as it is) stays so resolutely inside that damned house in san francisco the film becomes claustrophobic instead of genuinely thrilling. it one of those movies in which the supporting players  notably elisha cook and jr. (whose character homoerotic itch for tierney is one of the few subtleties in an otherwise pretty obvious script) and isabel jewell  out act the leads. it also doesn not help that and nearly half a century after alfred hitchcock and anthony perkins revolutionized the depiction of psycho killers on the screen in psycho and tierney is so gross and obvious he might as well have psycho tattooed on his forehead. also and there no indication in the film as it stands as to why the source novel was called deadlier than the male  but perhaps james gunn made the female characters stronger and more interesting than they are in the film. born to kill is a real disappointment from robert wise and who already had some quality movies under his belt and would go on to a stellar career.
