"This is just like the movies, huh?"

Well, my boys might be good boys, but the girls turn out to be real bad. That was actually a pretty neat ending when it turned out Mrs. Morton (Ida Lupino) was Priscilla's (Kerry Lynn) partner. But boy, it sure took a long time getting there. Especially when Lloyd Nolan's character did the interrogation bit at the reformatory. Here's what I don't get - at any point along the way, the security officer from the armored car could have told a client to let the cops know what was going on. Or could have written a note on the pick up log. Didn't that cross anybody's mind? And what was the business with all those cars crashing and running into grocery carts and flipping over on a dirt track? I thought the DVD I was watching suddenly turned into a different movie. You know, back in the Thirties and Forties, when they kept these flicks under an hour and in black and white, they seemed much more tolerable. I'm sure if they made this one with Mickey Rooney and Spencer Tracy back in the day it would have turned out just fine. Even Ida Lupino would have felt better about it.
