Reviews
Daninger very weak, unfortunately
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
goofonaroof In 1949 until 1956, Joe Besser was signed on by Columbia to star in 10 comedy two-reelers for the studio. In this one, Besser is unofficially teamed with local radio comedian Jim Hawthorne as Besser's straight-man. The short itself is a scene-by-scene remake of the 1943 Stooges short Dizzy Detectives as Besser and Hawthorne play detectives who go after a gorilla trained to rob an antique store after hours.It was remade, yet again, in 1955 as Hook a Crook.
