Yes there is.

Of course it’s a movie but during WWII and throughout history there have been many brave people who sacrificed everything for their beliefs!

Why can't these days script writers do not have that much of capability which showed 1943 onwards writers written, so simple but encouraging story, my DOB was 1956 maybe that's why I got the weaknesses for these types of stories.

I enjoyed the movie. Thanks for making it available.

Quite a good film. Those were the days when men wore a suit and hat, even the villains wore suits. Everyone had manners: stood up when a lady came into the room, opened doors , helped with her coat, and she was tastefully dressed.

Octane petrol...based on very real history. What makes this movie "quaint" is that single or groups of patriotic individuals would interact with Axis powers and they took heroic risks. Today it is a horror of surveillance and assassination. No one would have the liberty to move freely or be discreet in this kind of situation. It's all high stakes now.

Anytime I see PRC I know it is going to be worth watching even if it is considered a "B" movie. Those are where they could take chances and really come up with something new. The "A" movies had to play it safe.

They don't make films like this any more! O.K. Some viewers may say "thank goodness" but nevertheless, at that time, 1942 it probably did a lot for morale. Everything about it was pretty awful but an hour well spent is my opinion. I enjoy the historical aspects, cars, clothes etc and prefer this rubbish to modern day junk which lasts frequently for nearly two hours. Will watch another one very soon.

" historical aspects, cars, clothes" and classy women, but nothing more to go for in this anti-German movie.

A very well-made spy thriller. A cast of shady characters worthy of any Hitchcock offering. Well-written, plausible script, believable, compelling characters. Atmospheric settings, taut suspense. I particularly liked the dream sequence. It's safe to say "Producers' Releasing Corporation" were no slouches; even if they were a second-string, 'poverty row' studio... This was no 'B picture'. 👍👍👍🎞️📽️🎬

My, my my, what a great film.

Fine film. Loved the way the guys eyebrows kept going up and down like the bouncing ball on a karaoke machine during the first few minutes-lol.

This story is based on fact. In 1940 the R.A.F. had access 100 octane petrol to replace the 86 octane used in 1939 .This gave the Spitfire an extra 34 m.p.h.at 10,000ft.giving us the edge over the Meschersmits.Thank you U.S.A....without the ' secret formula ' we all,probably, would be speaking German now...

Winston Poole, Even if the octane had not been increased when it did and the Germans were able to shoot down more aircraft as a result, it would have made no difference in the end. The U.S.'s overwhelming manufacturing capability made the outcome inevitable. And consider this: The U.S. was having to supply the Pacific Campaign too, and japan was likewise overwhelmed with our manufacturing output. And...even if Germany had been able to complete their work on the atomic bomb first and wipe out Washington, they would have still been defeated and most likely we would have obliterated Berlin with atomic bombs like we did Nagasaki and Hiroshima. But there is a very interesting "what if" movie named "The Man in the High Castle" where Germany and Japan win WWll and they divide up the U.S. among them. I highly recommend watching it.

This should have been done as a Sat morn serial. Thanx

"fORMULA" isn't just what everyone is trying to steal or protect, it also describes the plot. The actors are not very good and the diialogue is hokey too.

Not the greatest movie, but still good to watch.

A very out-of-character role for Anne Nagel. But, when WWII began, the very talented, somewhat sexy looking, alcoholic actress had no shortage of struggles -- with her career and her personal life. Her most obscure of all motion pictures was probably "Black Friday" (1940), in which she played a nightclub singer by the name of Sunny Rogers -- and in which Jack Muhall had only a bit part, as a bartender.

The premise of the story is believable but all the other aspects of production were really bad - the screenwriting was bad, acting was terrible which can be blamed also to the bad direction. May not enough budget for location and props as they were reused in the same sequences of the foot chase and the car chase. Reaction shots were badly edited that conversations had gaps and dead air. This movie can be a good subject for discussion though in teaching what not to do.
