Review of Thank You, Mr. Moto (1937) by Private U — 12 Jun 2008
Really a lot of fun. Mr. Moto is a sort of 1930's version of a spy/adventurer/crime fighter. And let's face it, where else can you see a Hungarian refugee play a Japanese spy in a movie set in China with John Carradine as an Italian (I think thats the accent he was trying) antiques dealer.
At just under 70 minutes it moves quickly with some fun dialogue, interesting characters, and a hero that has no qualms about offing the bad guys. And Peter Lorre is a delight as probably the first martial arts expert in movies.
