Early 50's B&W crime flick disaster. A rookie patrol cop crosses paths with a couple of ex-cons and their two cohorts during a heist. The idea of the plot isn't bad but the script is. Mediocre acting, bad script, incompetent directing, the only good thing about the movie was its short running time of 59 minutes. |
B&W WWII war movie about an American destroyer assigned to a formation of ships around the island of Okinawa, to help protect the supply ships and American troops from Kamikaze attacks. The story mainly focuses on several crew members assigned to operate one of the main guns on the ship. A lot of stock combat film footage of Kamikaze attacks against American ships is used throughout the film, all of which I've seen countless times before, but it fit in well with the story so I didn't mind seeing it yet again. The running time of the movie was rather short at just over 1 hour. Not what I would consider an essential WWII flick, but fairly realistic and watchable. |
Another film from 1952. This one is a crime noir thriller about a city prosecutor trying to root out a major crime syndicate operating in his city. His girlfriend is working as his secretary, his best friend is a reporter for a local newspaper, his father is a city cop, there's a love triangle, and moral dilemmas and corruption galore. |
B&W film noir flick with a plot which wasn't quite what I was expecting when I saw the title. It has many of the usual elements of a typical film noir story but with an added twist. Mostly shot on location in NYC and similar in plot to 'Panic in the Streets' which was released a few months prior. I've seen 'Panic in the Streets' and I'd give it a slightly higher rating than this film but they're both enjoyable film noir thrillers. |
