★★★★★ · FABULOUS SHADOWS · dahlusion · 2023-11-07
"Cry Danger" mixes all of the noir ingredients of the early 1950's into a suspenseful melodrama that moves at a fast pace, pulling along crisp imagery and witty noir language. Dick Powell's one-liners, and his "smart ass" responses to questions, had me laughing many times. Rhonda Fleming pulls-off the femme fatale with ease and gracefulness––she's a knock out! Robert Parrish's debut as a director proved to be highly successful. Bravo!

Good film noir! Powell was always good in these movies. The other stars well supported the movie.
