| User ReviewBruce BFrom The Mill Creek 100 Movie Mystery Classics. Though low-budget and rather predictable, "Parole, Inc." is a fairly good crime story. It moves reasonably quickly, and keeps the viewer's attention most of the time. Hendricks (Michael O'Shea) is a federal agent investigating widespread abuses of the parole system. Several dangerous criminals have received unjustified paroles, and evidence points to an organized system of bribery. Agent Hendricks has to go undercover and win the confidence of the gang involved. O'Shea does a creditable job in the lead. Turhan Bey plays a suave lawyer who figures in the agent's investigation. The story that follows is generally predictable, without any real twists or surprises. But it is done well enough to be fairly interesting, is moderately fast-paced, and is usually believable. The characters are mostly stereotypes, but are not overdone. Overall, this is a watchable movie that should hold some interest for fans of crime films. 4 Stars 6-22-13 |
| User ReviewBill TSurprisingly entertaining little potboiler about a cop who goes undercover to get down to the bottom of why crooks are getting off on parole so easily. He chums along with local baddies, while putting his story together. Lots of action, good story buildup and fairly good acting make this more passable than others. |
