Having just seen "Bombay Clipper", a B Universal action mystery which Irene Hervey and William Gargan starred in the same year as this, I wasn't expecting other than a typical mediocre escapist adventure. This deals with the escapades of two Americans to aide the Chinese in the war with Japan and the evil machinations of Japanese spies to prevent the transfer of arms to the Chinese under any circumstance. The lifestyles and traditions of these foreign powers, both good and evil, remind me of Dracula's warning to the visiting Englishman, "Our ways are not your ways".
Like "Bombay Clipper", Hervey and Gargan exchange cracks, although it takes a while to get her to trust him. They seem more like pals than romantic interests, so the aspect of romance (fortunately secondary) isn't believable. This shows alleged tortured that the Japanese used, including foot whipping against one of their own who told Hervey secrets while drunk. The supporting cast includes such familiar faces as Turhan Bey, Keye Luke and Willie Fung, involved in the sinister antics through action that never stops.
