Jimmy Cagney on deliciously nasty form. Shame about the moralistic ending, but I guess it was made while Prohibition was still in force…

Cagney is virile in this one. Most of this is held back by the datedness…

Cagney is great. I believe that this was his breakout film. It's a pretty gritty snapshot of the prohibition era…

One of my favorite classic gangster films. My boy Cagney is just too cool for everyone. I emulate his rapid-fire talking and hot-headedeness…

After a slow start, Wellman gets it together, delivering up a well-made gangster film with poignant violence and some humor one wouldn't expect…

I left in the middle. It didn't keep my interest, and it was hard to hear - the sound is muffled…

A good start to gangster movies, and pretty brutal for 1931, but in the end it was mediocre with a couple of good scenes in it…

For a proto-gangster film, I quite enjoyed it. I had a lot of trouble getting past the way people talked…

Interesting twist on the Hero's Journey. It manages to be quite brutal even with most of the violence offscreen. And James Cagney is so the star…
