Incompetent and deadly dull!
JohnHowardReid8 May 2018
Warning: Spoilers
STARS: Billy Gilbert, Muriel Evans, Jack Rice.

Director: JEAN YARBROUGH. Screenplay: Jack Townley, Fred Guiol. Photography: Roy Hunt. Film editor: John Lockert. Sound recording: Hugh McDowell. RCA Sound System. Associate producer: Clem Beauchamp. Producer: Bert Gilroy.

Copyright 19 January 1940 by RKO Radio Radio Pictures, Inc.

Running time:18 boring minutes.

COMMENT: Awful! This little two-reeler is grossly overacted by its star, Billy Gilbert, who tries vainly to steam up some extremely weak material provided by the normally quite competent screenplay writers Jack Townley and Fred Guiol.

Steadfastly routine and downright dull direction by the normally competent Jean Yarbrough, plus the minimal production values provided by producer Bert Gllroy, certainly don't help.
