This early entry in the Bowery Boys series offers another example of the blend of crime and comedy so often found in the films. This time, thanks to a photographer friend, Sach (Huntz Hall) ends up suspected of involvement in a bank robbery, one in fact committed by a gang led by Ace Deuce (Sheldon Leonard). With the police after him, Sach goes into hiding. Meanwhile, Slip (Leo Gorcey) and the boys try to find the real culprits and clear their friend. The highlight of the movie has to be Slip’s pretending to be a rival gang leader, Midge Casalotti, whose all-over shivers make even oversized toughs shake with fear.

  Mildly recommended. Otto judiciously thinks this movie is OK.
