    The usual and forgettable stuff

    Well, really nothing special about this little forgotten film. A gangster film, OK, but if you don't get it, I assure you that you can live without it. Paul Kelly plays here the usual good guy who tries to get the bad guys behind bars. Good atmosphere although, but it doesn't deserve to be searched for years long. I don't know the director. The thirties gave us some better stuff. Even grade B ones, like this movie. Again, if you can catch it, do it, but if not, I repeat, it doesn't matter. Believe me.

    What can I say more about it?

    I really don't know, guys, sorry. I almost forgot it, and I watched this feature only ten minutes ago.
