Double Cross (1941)

By the book programmer has a couple of twists that keep it interesting

[5/10 · 29 December 2008]

Kane Richmond is a cop who tries to get revenge on the gang that shot his friend and who have designs on taking out his father, a big wig on the force. Unremarkable programmer has just enough odd bits to keep things interesting. From the slacking off cop hanging around the illegal gambling club, to the cops machine gunning the bad guys to death there are just enough things to make this worth trying on a slow night. To be honest the film is actually a rather clichéd almost silly tale but every now and again its throws a curve ball to make you sit up and take notice. Odds are you'll only want to see this once so a rental would be in order, but I think you'll be amused for that one go through.
