Review of The Mandarin Mystery (1936) by James H — 04 Jun 2006
5.5/10. Nifty old mystery, part of the Ellery Queen series from the 1930's and 1940's. The low budget is evident, but the film still looks good and moves at a brisk pace. Short and sweet. Eddie Quillan isn't the best actor for the main detective, but he tries his best.
Nice touches of humor a plus. Light, enjoyable entertainment.
