Behind its alley-cat philosophy, there's some shrewd sense, some pointed barbs and a sharp moral.

Of course he gets his comeuppance, in an ending that has all the moral weight and sincerity of a DeMille sex'n'sawdust spectacular. Good performances, though.

Caine plays the sodding little spiv with a raucous charm that makes Alfie seem more interesting than he actually is.
