    I really do get in to these classics. my meaningless opinion, they're different than now days (obviously), but, they keep me interested as movies now do. Classics let me enjoy more of what now mvs don't have.. CLASS!

      Your "Opinion" is no where being meaningless !!✔️👍 Alot of times if I don't remember the movie I go to the comments if there is no description of it and read them to get an idea of the content of the movie 👏 So everyone keep them coming ! Thank's all. Good movie about young reruits becoming Men "POLICEMEN" that is.

    Don't see it mentioned by anyone here, but Gordon Jones, the Police Rookie here is also the guy who played Mike the Cop on the Abbott & Costello TV shows. I guess this is where he started his police career.

    The "Chief" talking to the old cop, "you've been on the force for 23 years". When did he start on the force, when was 45 years old? Why is it always in movies and TV shows that cops never seem to be able to put in 25 years to retire with a pension? It's always 23 years and they look 68, 20 years and they look 56, 18 years and they look 50. Something always happens and they never put in their time. Have to quit or retire without a pension. Or they get arrested and indicted. Take the character "Detective John Munch" on "Law and Order: Special Victims Unit", he left the show in 2016 (but I guess he got a pension). The actor, Richard Belzer (who cracks me up every time I see him) was 72 years old in real life when left the show.

    Good production values. Actors did their personas well. Plot standard tedium. These B movies during this time period typecast the actors in grit-your-teeth roles. I complain now but then, it was work at a time just as the Depression was ending and WWII was imminent.

      (1) It's a movie. (2) It was written as a B movie to fit a time frame, not be factual. (3) The laws of evidence, apprehension, t=investigation weren't considered for a B movie and everything has changed dozens of times since that time period. It's a movie - get it?

    Engaging semi-primer that treats a serious subject with respect
    Hoped it would be a progressive intro of a woman to the force. Should have known when the title didn't use "girl." For all the injustices we must overlook in old movies, e.g., sexism, racism, stereotypes, etc., they can't be accused of ageism. They are peppered with seniors at all levels of responsibility and influence.
