Russ G Better than I'd expected largely due to the talents of Peter Lorre. Harold Huber is a baddie in this one, opposite the type he's played in numerous installments of the Charlie Chan franchise. Not much of a mystery but plenty of fast-paced action makes it a passable hour's diversion.

The fourth Mr. Moto film has a fantastic set-up: Peter Lorre worms his way into England's League of Assassins after a daring incognito Devil's Island prison escape. Awesome. Unfortunately, like a lot of entries in the series, Moto himself gets lost in a barrage of bland actors and characters. When Lorree is jujitsuing it up, it is fantastic fun. But when the boring white folks are talkin' it's a snoozefest. VF. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member An entertaining movie with a good story. Peter Lorre is so awesome as Mr. Moto. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member This entry in the Moto series starts off like gangbusters with an escape from Devil's Island (featuring shooting from the world's worst shots!). Moto has gone deep under cover as the convict Ito to infiltrate the League of Assassins. Things slow up quite a bit after the opening and even more when Peter Lorre is not on camera and the love story with Mary McGuire and Henry Wilcoxon come on (accompanied by Erik Rhodes in an almost painfully swishy performance). Things pick up again and there's some good action when Moto returns, but the movie is uneven at best. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
