The film deals with the experience of a young couple keen to use firearms to raise things during this period of their lives. One day, even though they understand the level of seriousness of the circumstances, they both face crime as if it were nothing and they rise with many challenges.
Some old pulpy noir thrillers aren't as pleasurable as the garish posters that advertised them, but this re-release gives us an example of the genre that's every bit as brash, lusty and stylish as you could wish it to be.
The plotting is simplistic and predictable. The acting and tough-guy/gal dialogue are rather comical at times. Yet the film hit home then, and it still hits home today.
