One of Bogey's best films, this action-comedy holds up now far better than a number of his better-known pictures.
A terrific, colorful cast of characters portray Broadway gamblers and Irish-American gangsters facing off against a Nazi spy ring in WWII New York City. A fast-moving story, a lot of great dialogue, and a glimpse of familiar faces like Phil Silvers and Jackie Gleason in their salad days. Cast also includes wonderful Warner regulars like Peter Lorre and Conrad Veidt.

The reviews of this one have been mixed, so I thought I would add my two cents on the positive side. Like a number of other reviewers, I only recently stumbled on this film having never even heard of it before. Usually, a film being this obscure despite such a great cast means trouble and I can understand how it doesn't work for some people. The Runyonesque opening does grate a bit with the spy thriller the movie evolves into. But I enjoyed it immensely. It has that early WW II, we're all in this together boys -- petty gangsters or not! -- feel.
It probably helps that I'm a big William Demarest fan. Probably best known for playing Uncle Charlie on the "My Three Sons" sit-com, Demarest had a fine film career as comic actor. He was a regular in the great Preston Sturges films of the 1940s. It's good to see him here in a similar role. The presence of the young Phil Silvers and Jackie Gleason is also a plus. Although the dialog in their scenes could have been better, you can still see hints of their later TV stardom. I was also impressed with Kaaren Verne as the female lead. She's very attractive and gives an adequate performance. I'm surprised that she didn't have a better career. Fun trivia note: She was later married briefly to Peter Lorre, who also appears in this film. Finally, the print is really first rate. Kudos to Warner Brothers for doing a good job with this unjustly neglected film.

"All through the Night" is my favorite Bogart movie. It setting is the NYC, NY during WWII. The common American citizens and Bogart are going up against Nazi Spies and Saboteurs in NYC NY. The enemy thinks that American's are weak, fearful, and lazy. Bogart and the average American Joes show them how wrong they are. This film combines drama, action, and comic relief. A great supporting cast with the likes of Phil Silvers and a very young Jackie Gleason are some examples. This is a patriotic film from that period. I love it and I think you will too.
