Movie Reviews

Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) - 9/10 by Ken HankeSo exactly the very definition of a Charlie Chan movie from the era when Warner Oland played the Chinese detective that it's probably the most essential of them all.
Kansas City Kansan - 9/10 by Steve CrumAh so, and it has the best Chan--Warner Oland.
User Review - 8/10 by James HHad to re-watch this gem after receiving a Toler box set for Christmas. Oland is Chan and will always be in my book. Opera pairs him with Karloff the Uncanny in a solid, exciting entry in the series. I think this and the Olympics are probably the two most interesting Chan movies ever made.
User Review - 8/10 by Karen JThis movie and all Charlie Chan movies are classic mysterys.
User Review - 6/10 by George IThe 12th outing for Warner Oland as the veteran sleuth from Honolulu. Incredibly, the film starts (here) at the Melbourne Cup with a jockey throwing a race while riding the favourite. From there, it moves to Hawaii and then onward to Los Angeles, picking up murder and intrigue along the way. The plot is a little more complex than usual and (some racist comedy aside, if you can put it aside) that makes this a more enjoyable puzzler. You can't guess who did it, but you can maintain the illusion that you could have.
User Review - 6/10 by Michael GCapable filler stuff. Does have a pretty banging clue though!
User Review - 6/10 by Matt BFun mystery involving a thrown horse race and the murder of the horse's owner. Charlie Chan is called in and conducts an investigation onboard the ship, with lots of intrigue and suspicious characters along the way. Number One son tags along disguised as a cabin boy. Good 30s mystery fun.
