Review of Dragnet (1987) by Dave Kehr for Chicago Tribune — 15 Oct 1997
If the movie has a weakness, it's an over-reliance on Bond-style car chases and mass action scenes, which take away from the much richer and more original character comedy. But Mankiewicz's basic instincts seem admirable.
He knows that a movie begins with people, and that`s a very good start.
