Product Description

Product Description

In 1931, James Cagney helped jump-start the gangster genre as The Public Enemy. In 1935, he waged on-screen war against the nation's public enemies. Outcries against movies that glorified underworld criminals put Cagney on the side of the law in "G" Men. Emphasis may have changed but elements are the same. "G" Men builds to a fury of bold escapes, siren-wailing pursuits and frenzied shootouts. "Anything worth newspaper space is worth a movie," Warner Bros. executive Lou Edelman declared. Here, a punchy hot-off-the-presses account of the pursuit and capture of John Dillinger provides the story inspiration as tough-guy Cagney gives it to 'em good in a movie that's "fast, gutsy, as simplistic and powerful as a tabloid headline" (Geoff Andrew, Time Out Film Guide).

Amazon.com

There comes a time in the career of every gangster star when he has to go straight. Jimmy Cagney did it in "G" Men, a crisp crimefighting drama directed by William Keighley. Its hero is one more Cagney variation on the working-class guy with a smart mouth and a hard right, only this time he's a lawyer whose education was paid for by the avuncular local crimelord. Cagney's on the square, though, and after a law-school pal turned F.B.I. agent is murdered in the line of duty, he joins the Bureau. Made with the blessings of J. Edgar Hoover, the movie pays homage to several spectacular moments in Bureau legend, but it's at its grabbiest when things get personal for Cagney--say, the complications that arise from his onetime sorta-girlfriend, nightclub chanteuse Ann Dvorak, taking up with very bad dude Barton MacLane.

Film critic Manny Farber praised Keighley as "the least sentimental director of gangster careers," and he gives the numerous murders and shootouts a jolting ferocity. (Thirteen years later Keighley helmed the excellent F.B.I. case history Street With No Name.) The I-don't-like-you-and-I-don't-trust-you byplay between Cagney and his Bureau boss Robert Armstrong gets old, but there's flavorful thuggery from MacLane, Edward Pawley, Noel Madison, et al. "G" Men's style is briskly no-nonsense, yet so beautifully has the film been restored and digitally remastered, there are moments when Sol Polito's cinematography literally glows. One gripe only: The movie should have been presented as it was in 1935, without the F.B.I.-classroom intro tacked on for 1949 reissue (the sort of thing "Special Features" was made for). --Richard T. Jameson

5.0 out of 5 stars "oh, just a grease ball"

Can't really be objective when it comes to Cagney. He is my favorite actor.
Seems to be conflicting ideas on why this movie was made.
Some stating it is in response by Warner Bros. to the Hay's code, and others say that Cagney wanted to change his image from being a gangster.
I agree with the second one. He specifically left Warner Boros later for that very purpose.
Cagney in later years, when he gained more control over his career and left Warner Bros., included making "the time of our life" (that he bought the rights to produce) and his dancing movies where he proved he really preferred he did not like playing the bad guy gangster.
Even when he is playing a bad guy his underpinning character of a good guy always seems to peek through.
He does a great job of it in this movie, as usual, and I found myself really rooting for him as he plays the hero good guy.
Acting just doesn't get better, and they just don't make movies even remotely as good as this anymore.
Proves all the language, blood, and special effects of our day is just a poor excuse for bad writing and bad acting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Crackerjack crime thriller!
Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2013

Cagney at the top of his game in this fast-paced, razor-sharp gangster thriller ably directed by longtime Cagney friend William Keighley. Surrounded by the Irish mafia at Warner Bros. of Robert Armstrong, Lloyd Nolan, Regis Toomey and Barton MacLane, the screen crackles with electric energy and nary a second could be cut as the script and pace are tight as a drum. Near 80 years old and this film is as fresh as if it were released last week. Cagney has rarely been better or more believable than he is here in G-Men. Superb, inventive cinematography, and this is one of the last Warner Bros. gangster films where they were still using "live" ammunition in some parts of the shootout scenes!

5.0 out of 5 stars G-Men
Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2007
Verified Purchase
After solidifying his reputation as Hollywood's number-one bad guy, Cagney played a straight-edge lawman in this gangland drama, a huge hit for Warners and great publicity for J. Edgar Hoover's fledgling department, which had only recently granted officers the right to bear arms (a big plot point in the film). Cagney is mesmerizing as Brick, prudent and principled but also tough as nails and willing to throw his weight around. His two love interests, a bar-girl-gone-wrong (Ann Dvorak) and hospital nurse (Margaret Lindsay), land him in a tangle and also help amplify the theme of divided loyalties. Cagney is at his riveting, entertaining best in "G Men."

This is a good old gangster vs. good guy movie, starring James Cagney, Margaret Lindsay and Ann Dvorak. Mr. Cagney loses a good friend in the FBI to a mobster from his old neighborhood in Brooklyn. He is a lawyer who decides to join the FBI and get the gangster who killed his friend. A very good movie!

5.0 out of 5 stars THE GRAND DADDY OF ALL FBI FILMS!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 13, 2008
Verified Purchase
G Men was made after the introduction of the Hays production code a censorship governing body that ensured that Hollywood produced films that were morally harmless. It also meant that actors who had made their names playing gangsters were rehabilitated, starting with Jimmy Cagney.
Cagney plays a struggling young lawyer, Brick Davis who after being put through college by aging mob boss "Mac" finds himself going no where. After his friend is killed by one of Mac's hoods (Barton MacLane) Davis joins the FBI to track them down. Despite at first being at odds with his commanding officer (Robert Armstrong) Brick soon wins his confidence and goes after the baddies.
