In a squalid South American oil town, four desperate men sign on for a suicide mission to drive trucks loaded with nitroglycerin over a treacherous mountain route to a faraway oil fire.

One of the most deeply and disturbingly nihilistic films ever made, as well as one of the most heart-pounding thrillers. [06 Mar 1992, p.C2]

Wages of Fear rides for a cheap fall. Clouzot has copped out with cheap irony. [25 May 1967, p.31]

The movie is good and I would give an 8, but for me that ending completely destroys the film.
The outcome could and should be the same, but done differently.

Outdated movie with many scenes, that are a bit ridiculous today. Anyway the story is not bad but too long: 2,5 hours.
