Viewing Notes

Thought I had seen this before and yep I did two years ago. Wasn’t rated on my Netflix so I gave it a whirl anyways. I like this these Phil Rosen flicks because they are so pulpy and serialized almost like a TV series. Sidney Toler is hilarious as Chan. I don’t think any are particularly great but very breezy to watch.
