      Meyer Levin (Patterson Murphy) Esquire Magazine Another Grand Hotel on a boat, but with the humor dependent upon some almost subtle character touches rather than straight gags. Walter Connelly projects the title with fine rancour. Apr 23, 2020 Full Review Ann Ross Maclean's Magazine There's nothing more annoying than getting the solution of a mystery at the wrong end of the picture. Jul 23, 2019 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews A neglected gem. Rated: A- Aug 27, 2010 Full Review Phil Hall Film Threat A wonderful comedy which offers solid proof John Gilbert was more than capable of acting in a sound film.

      Audience Member Mediocre programmer was the end of the line for John Gilbert, the great silent matinee idol reduced to a supporting role. His part is minor and he doesn't look bad for a 50 year old man, the problem is that he was only 35 when this was filmed. Beside his involvement this is a minor picture with a muddled script that Milestone can't make come alive. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member A simple film about a group of interesting individuals on cross Atlantic cruise & all their going on's. Most interestingly this was Silent Star John Gilbert's last film by this stage his career was very downhill & was an alcoholic & that was clear in the role. The story itself was a little lifeless but the all the interesting personalities made the film much better. It's a interesting film that was made in the early 1930's. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
