Rijndri Load of rubbish!!

Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Paularoc Based on the five episodes I saw (and reviewed each of the episodes under their individual titles), this was an entertaining cop drama. The story lines were sufficiently intriguing with the occasional snappy lines and the guest actors were uniformly very good. Raft's performance was also good but did often lack spark - but then he always was a fairly wooden performer. The series does suffer somewhat from being very studio bound - even the one lengthy scene set in a park looks like a studio set. But I quibble. Three episodes are available on Matinée Classics and two different episodes are available on Uncle Earl's Classic T.V. Channel site. These are definitely worth watching and it's fun trying to identify the many familiar character actors such as Rochelle Hudson, Lyle Tabot, Percy Helton, and Gordon Jones.

Ninian Reid Our family didn't have TV in 1953/54 but the next door neighbours did. I was 8 or 9 at the time and I can still remember the closing scenes of "I Am The Law"on Friday afternoons.If my (pretty ancient) memory serves me correctly, George Raft's programme was aired immediately before "The Cisco Kid" on BBC Television (the only player in town !). I would love to think someone somewhere would issue the series on DVD, but I'm not holding my breath. Here in the United Kingdom, very little early television survives, America, on the other hand - due to its enormously large land mass - carefully filmed popular shows for syndicated distribution. Many programmes survive in excellent condition including "Criminologist" with Canadian actor Donald Woods at the helm.

malcolm-webb Three episodes were strung together and released theatrically as a second feature in the UK in late 1954 under the title " Crime Squad " with a running time of 71 minutes. The film was granted a British Board of Film Censors certificate " A " ( children admitted if in the company of an adult ) I believe two of the episodes were " The Model Agency " and " The McClury Brothers ". The third involved the murder of a police officer, the principal clue being that of the imprint of a tennis shoe. Unfavourable review quotes ... three undistinguished melodramatic crime stories, in which the detection is mainly a matter of intuition and guesswork...unquote. I recall the TV series on early BBC programming, and in particular the story of the shoplifter who justifies the stealing with the line .. "God helps those who help themselves !"

ejrjr Geroge Raft plays a NYPD detective in a gritty, shot-on-location crime series which apparently spawned Naked City, Cagney & Lacy and NYPD Blue among many other series. This is New York City in the early 50s and apparently crime was the same then as today. Raft as usual is a joy to watch. Unfortunately, I have only seen one episode in which a chemist for a cosmetic company is secretly importing drugs disguised in cosmetic samples from France. The script is above average and maintains interest without resorting to banality or contrived situations. This series only survived for 26 episodes and unfortunately has fallen into oblivion without VHS or DVD release unless you know differently. Cosman Productions and Television Corporation of America produced such during 1952-53.
