Nothing Doing
Charley asks for his girlfriend's hand in marriage, but her father, the police chief, angrily refuses to allow her to marry anyone who is not himself a policeman. Charley then decides to join the police force, so that he can win her. But when he applies, he is rejected because he is too small. Charley doesn't give up, and he soon thinks of a way to avoid the size restriction - but simply joining the force is only the first challenge that he has to face.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The director constructs a classic situational comedy, relying on a simple but effective premise. It explores physical humor and builds a chain of escalating absurdities as the determined hero faces each new bureaucratic hurdle.
What lingers after the final gag is the charm of a straightforward, cheerful story about perseverance. Those who tire of complexity will find unpretentious fun here. — MovieFinder Editorial
