"Mugs, leader of his gang, thinks a fellow member Danny is trying to steal his glory and taint his reputation. Though in this film a World War Two propagandist message eventually takes over quite heavily and  in an involuntarily comical way, particularly in its final part, there is a nice message about growing up. On top of that, in the tradition of other East Side Kids films, this one is not only entertaining but also a portrayal of street life with more guts and satire on the real deal setting than most counterparts of the time."
