Blurb From the VHS
Jacket: “They fought the law, but the law didn’t notice!”
What Did I Learn?:
Stringing a hot chick along by promising to take her to exotic locales, and then never going anywhere is a strategy fraught with perils.
You Might Like This
Movie If: You've always wanted to watch a full-length, feature-film version of America's Dumbest Criminals.
Really?: 1) It's a funny scene, but I had a bit of trouble believing Jerry would stick around in the bakery, eating pastries, when it's obvious the cops are on the way. 2) Wow...that girl in the second-hand shop is awfully nice to Sid. Does stuff like that happen in real life?
Rating: Highly reminiscent of Big Deal on Madonna Street and Crackers, Palookaville is a funny, and often charming look at three dumb-but-sympathetic would-be-criminals. My only complaint is that the film is quite slow-moving, and it takes forever for the plot to actually hatch. 8/10 stars.
