This film was a decent detective story. I was never bored although you could argue that it takes skill to make an hour long movie boring. Some of the cinematography is great. There is bad child acting. I liked the humour in this film, unlike a lot of films from the 30s-60s it doesn't make fun of the female characters and doesn't contain an annoying comic relief. I will say, however, that the characters do fall into one dimensional stereotypes. Also the mystery itself isn't well developed as the main villain is some Rando that just turns up at the end. There is one tense sequence at the end. Overall, it's a short film and not a total waste of time, so watch it if you really like noir, detectives or any of the other movies in this franchise.
