Relaxed feel and nice to look at, 16 March 2002
Author: Jeff (Inthegoodlife@Aol.com) from Jacksonville, FL

Charlie Chan in Rio moves like lightening, is very relaxed and has some great sets. Chan solves the murder of a murderess in Rio. The plot is swift and the murder is basic. Jimmy Chan has a very solid, physical fight scene and Toler as Chan flows nicely with the role. Harold Huber is actually decent in his role and doesn't stand out like a sore thumb like in his other Chan films. A very smooth effort.
