Jeffrey W A cut above with an excellent cast and Edward G. still strutting his stuff not to long after Key Largo....Lee Van Cleef is a stand out.....Blue print for Hill Street Blues, I reckon Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/01/24 Full Review nick s Well put together police drama. It does feel more like a television episode than a movie. Solid acting. Could have built up the heist a little better. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/24 Full Review Read all reviews
