This is a lesser-known Bogie film that I think is overlooked and underrated. The story is good, moves fairly quickly, has some surprises and fun/thrilling parts. Ok, of course the special effects aren't up to today's standards, but hey, it was the 50's. I enjoyed it completely. Bogie is absolutely wonderful. His acting, his yumminess - 5 stars from me! There is one scene, ok TWO scenes, that I can rewind over and over and never get tired of. Bogie is a MAN! I love it. 5 stars and a big shout out for this movie to come out on DVD! Please!

Matt Brennan knows how to open eyes to the potential of the experimental jet, the JA-3. He'll pilot it from Nome over the North Pole to Washington DC and land it on the Pentagon's lap. The distance is beyond the JA-3's tested range. Nor can the craft provide the pressurization needed for flight at 80,000 feet. But Brennan has some modifications in mind. And the courage to put them to the test. Humphrey Bogart plays Brennan in Chain Lightning's lofth mix of adventure and romance. Eleanor Parker, as a World War II flame who reenters Brennan's life, helps fuel the romance. And the adventure takes wing with a story that, like Breaking the Sound Barrier, The McConnell Story and other postawr films, taps into the era'sfascination with jet aviation. Cleared for takeoff. Year: 1950Director: Stuart Heisler Starring:Humphrey Bogart, Eleanor Parker Special Feature: Original Theatrical TrailerB&W/94 Mins.
