Good concept, poorly executed.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

I really do hope this 1960's television series was saved in the libraries of cinema excellence. It would be great if the entire series was cleaned up and released in Blu Ray format. The stories were always so real and the cops who worked the cases were so much better than that other good reality type TV series, Dragnet.The racism, rape and murder epidemic was in full swing in the 1960's of New York city and these stories were presented in a format that has still been locked in my memory banks some fifty years now.If the owners of this superb crime/drama TV series are listening please consider releasing this two season television series on Blu Ray and I know there are enough fans of reality cop shows that don't need CGI, or T&A to maintain our attention.I loved this TV series and I rate it a 9 out of 10 rating. It was fantastic!

I was absolutely riveted to my TV as a teenager to watch this show. The settings were totally realistic, the acting was first rate with many excellent ny actors (Pacino, Clayburgh, Martin Sheen) as stars. It didn't hurt that I had a huge crush on Frank Converse as well. The stories were excellent and felt very true to life although that was way before I moved East. I was very upset when the show was canceled. The only other police series that I believe measure up are Naked City and Homicide, Life on the Streets.

Another TV show I recently discovered. I appreciate that it is very different from the usual - but worth - Hollywood stuff. You rapidly recognize here the NY City style, way of filming. You may think of Sidney Lumet's films. Yes, fast paced is the best word to describe this show. Acting performances are absolutely fantastic, Jack Warden at his best. I am very happy to Watch this TV show. I also Watch SWAT in the same time; I also appreciate, but the two are very different. The score is terrific. I don't know if this show has already been aired in France. I don't think so. Anyway, I was too young to remember.

Shows like Homicide owe a debt of gratitude to NYPD. This show was gritty and felt real as the detectives worked NYC fighting crime. The always reliable Jack Warden was the boss, Frank Converse was young Johnny Corso, and the under-rated Robert Hooks was Jeff Ward (whose wife Ethel was played by Denise Nicholas). And many, many later famous faces showed up on this show each week. It was a great show and it deserves a more than honorable mention!
