7/10
One huge flaw
3 January 2018
Warning: Spoilers
A very good movie that doesn't reach greatness because of one gigantic flaw in the script. I know it takes place in 1950 but can anyone explain how Kotter (Gagney), who is wanted for escaping a road gang by shooting a guard and killing another prisoner can just waltz into a police headquarters later in the film. Supposedly to change his identity with the help of the inspector ? Give me a break, his photo had to be known far and wide by that time. I hate it when this happens. A script writer who has done an otherwise fine job blows it by tying the movie together with a totally implausible plot turn.
