WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesFilm debut of Gordon MacRae, who was a well-known radio singer. He got star billing and had signed a five-year contract with Warner Bros.
- PatzerWhen Johnny and the police chief were riding in the car in the final scene, the view out the rear window is the exact same street scene as was used in their earlier car ride.
Ausgewählte Rezension
It starts off well but fizzles.
"The Big Punch" is a film which has a ration convoluted plot...one with many disparate story elements. The overall picture is okay...but could have been better.
When the story begins, you learn that the college sports hero, Chris Thorgenson (Wayne Morris), is graduating and will instead of going pro will become a minister. At the same time, Johnny Grant (Gordon MacRea), is a boxer who refuses to throw a fight...and so the gamblers who fixed the match kill a cop and make it look as if Johnny did it....and Johnny goes on the lam. Oddly, Johnny shows up in Chris' town and Chris takes him under his wing. Later, when Chris learns that Johnny is wanted for murder, he and a lady friend turn amateur detectives in order to solve the case.
The second half of film was pretty limp. Like many 1930s and 40s films, it features private folks solving crimes...a silly cliche. This is where the film loses momentum. The actors try their best...but the story just seemed strange and hard to believe.
