Zusammenfassung:Dick Tracy, Detective (1945): Crimebuster Dick Tracy was instantly immortalized when Chester Gould printed his first comic strip in 1931. With this movie, director William Berke shapes genuinely suspenseful film-noir elements around an otherwise simple crime yarn about Tracy’s efforts to track down the vicious Splitface.

Dick Tracy vs. Cueball (1946): This hammy Dick Tracy film has crimebuster Tracy fighting the bald diamond thief and killer Cueball, played by Dick Wessell. Although the film is as moody as some other Tracy features, it is also a miasma of unfortunate clichés and cheap plot devices. [apolloguide.com]
Dick Tracy's Dilemma (1947): Detective Dick Tracy’s nemesis this time is Claw, a con with a steel claw for a right hand. Despite some fascinating set pieces, and the presence of Ray Byrd (one of the better of the Dick Tracy actors), the film is hindered by an all-too-familiar plot and tiresome stock characters. [apolloguide.com]. - Dick Tracy meets Gruesome (1947): Watch as Dick Tracy goes one-on-one with the not-so-pretty Gruesome (Boris Karloff) in a gimmicky, but effective bank heist thriller. By choosing to abandon some of the series’ lame comedic devices, director John Rawlins has managed to weave an effectively self-referential, moody film. [apolloguide.com]
