★★★ · Alarmingly Decent · malary · 2009-02-20
It's not top-notch, but it was great movie. The photographer is pretty funny and all the actors were perfectly casted. I would give 3.5 stars if I could; well done.

Bank Alarm is a pretty straightforward, pull no punches actioner that pits a married (nice!) couple of a G-Man and (yes) G-Woman, against a counterfeit money ring. The bad guys you see, popped the counterfeiter of the money they are planning to distribute. (thanks to the descriptions of 5! Count em! 5! Newspaper headlines we get to see), The G-People, as I like to call them, methodically step by step, follow the pieces of the puzzle until the end until itÂs somewhat predictably conclusion.

(gee boss) Photographer is comic relief and couldn't pour urine out of a boot with directions stamped on the heel, but it's a good flick. Enjoyable if not corny..

The Photographer exemplifies failure is worth a thousand laughs. Time and time again his best laid plans end in disaster. Karlotti with a Kosher K. Jews always overreach. Especially in humor!

The best thing about this picture is that it is an excellent print and in super shape. Otherwise it's a routine crime programmer, maybe a little more idiotic than most. The "comedy" of Vince Barnett, or the lack of it brings this film down drastically, as well. Conrad Nagel, and Wheeler Oakman turn in professional performances as usual, but the rest of the cast leaves a lot to be desired. 'Nuff said.
