Guns, Girls, and Gangsters (1958)

"Better stand back, fellas. I take deep breaths.", 3 July 2015

I've written a review for this movie two times and two times my computer has crashed. I'm not doing it again, so I'll be brief.

I enjoy this movie much more than I should. It's got a ton of problems, the worst of which are plot holes big enough to drive the armored car in the movie through. But, it's too much fun not to like. Being a movie with Mamie Van Doren, she's quite naturally the center of attention. With two songs, platinum blond hair, quotes like the one I put in the title of this review, bullet bras, and skin-tight skirts - what's not to like? The rest of the cast, Gerald Mohr and Lee Van Cleef in particular, are also good. Van Cleef's crazed killer is an over-the-top blast. Add some real suspense toward the end of the movie, enough plot points for two movies, nice cinematography and locations, and noirish style dialogue - you've got a fun, 50s B-quickie that fans of this stuff should really check out. A 6/10 from me.
