Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 8/10 by Dennis SchwartzThis efficient revenge yarn was shot in 22 days.
User Review - 10/10 by jay nCry Danger (1951) Wow! I finally saw this movie on TCM and fell in love with it. This RKO film noir is fantastic with great acting and a smart, fast-moving dialog. A small time wheelman, Rocky Mulloy (Dick Powell) gets off a train in LA, pardoned from a five year stint of a life sentence in prison. He's met at the station by detective Lieutenant Gus Cobb (Regis Toomey) and returning Veteran Delong (Richard Erdman). Lieutenant Cobb warns Rocky that he's going to keep an eye on him until he finds him with the missing bankroll that he's still suspected of stealing. Or, to follow him to the people who did the stealing of it. That is, unless he gets himself shot in the process. Delong, who got Rocky released as a missing witness to Rocky's alibi, is also going to hang around, if the bankroll shows up. He really didn't meet Rocky on that fateful day, but wants in on the money anyway. Delong becomes Rocky's drunken, one-legged sidekick. The problem is, that Rocky didn't have anything to do with the robbery or murder and is determined to get the guys who did and framed him. He also wanted to clear his good friend who is still in prison. He moves into the trailer park that his friend's Wife, Nancy Morgan (Rhonda Fleming) is staying. Delong hooks up with a hot pick-pocketing blonde, Darlene LaVonne (Jean Porter), while Rocky goes after the gangster Louie Castro (William Conrad) who planned the whole bank job to begin with. The movie is filled with wise-cracking dialog and deceptive femme fatales, and double-crosses, that you would come to expect from a Dick Powell film noir from the 50s. If you liked him in "Murder My Sweet", you'll love him in this one. The Los Angeles backdrop looks incredibly seedy and I love the boat of a car that these guys drive around LA in.
User Review - 8/10 by Todd TMostly daytime scenes, which is weird for noir, but some nice performances aided by snappy, and often funny, dialogue. Very lean, efficient thriller.
User Review - 8/10 by Patryk CSuspenseful, intriguing, and very intense noir piece about double crossing, treason, and deceitful dames. Very underrated movie that shows Dick Powell's fantastic acting skills, as he wonders through the dangerous streets of his home town, five years after he was framed for robbery, looking for the ones who framed him. The russian roulette scene will surely make your heart race.
User Review - 8/10 by Greg Wso glad they were able 2 save & restore this noir in which powell like in 'murder, my sweet' plays a hard guy with lots of snappy dialogue and rhonda flemming!
User Review - 8/10 by Randy TFramed for a crime he never committed, Rocky (Dick Powell) is fresh outta' prison and looking for a little payback. Cry Danger is chocked full of all the elements noir fans slobber over. Powell is rock solid and Rhonda Fleming looks absolutely edible.
User Review - 8/10 by Michael HHard-boiled right down to its bones. "Cry Danger" doesn't quite make the grade a a great film but it is a really fun hard-boiled melodrama with snappy hard-boiled dialog. The wry off-hand wit of the often terse dialog and the brisk pacing propel the story through the film's hour and twenty minute running time without much chance for the audience's interest to lag.
User Review - 8/10 by Stella Dseriously underrated noir with dick powell in marlowe mode. always fun to see him play a hard guy with plenty of snappy dialogue, as seen in 'murder, my sweet.' terrific russian roulette scene!
User Review - 6/10 by Roger JI don't usually enjoy film noir, but I caught this one on TCM one night and thought it was pretty good. Snappy dialogue, well paced, good story.
User Review - 6/10 by Bill MPlease everybody: remember it is better to be safe than sorry, better to laugh later than to have to cry.
