Not great, not horrible either.
This low-budget movie had two child stars with careers headed in opposite directions: Mickey Rooney's going UP, Jackie Cooper's going DOWN.
Like so many movies of this era, movie is SUPPOSED to be set in New York (Lower East Side), yet virtually all the actors, form the youngest to the oldest, have hokey Midwestern accents! How could no one have noticed this? Scores a big ZERO for authenticity, but an OK, just an OK movie, period.
Not the type of flick you'd go out of your way to see a second time, that's for sure.
