This is more of a documentary at times than a movie, but it's decent. It's not the normal exciting gangster fare than Cagney excelled in, but it's okay.
The first hour is a bit slow with the documentary style and then the last 35 minutes picks up considerably as the spy story is played out in dramatic fashion. Cagney was starting to show his age a bit but he still was pretty spry.
Richard Conte does a nice job as the German disguising himself as an American and eventually has a showdown with Cagney. That's in the suspenseful last 30 minutes which saves the film.
