4.0 out of 5 stars Big Assist From Manton Moreland, September 1, 2002

By 

Peter Kenney (Birmingham, Alabama, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Charlie Chan: Scarlet Clue [VHS] (VHS Tape)

THE SCARLET CLUE is an above average entry in the Chan series helped by a fast-paced script and the antics of Manton Moreland as Birmingham Brown.

Charlie is acting as a federal agent trying to solve a murder and at the same time prevent the theft of top secret radar plans. The title refers to a bloody footprint.

Sidney Toler has the role of Charlie and Benson Fong is back as Tommie Chan.

3.0 out of 5 stars Serial-style Chan mystery offers some fun for B-movie fans., December 6, 1999

This review is from: Charlie Chan: Scarlet Clue [VHS] (VHS Tape)

One of budget-brand Monogram Pictures' entries in the Charlie Chan series, this picture has a busy, tricky screenplay which resembles a serial story. The villain is masked and cloaked in the best cliffhanger tradition, and every few minutes there is some new deadly device introduced (an elevator with a trap door, a weather tunnel with dangerous extremes of heat and cold, etc.). The radio-station setting is novel, and there is some outstanding comedy relief by Mantan Moreland and Ben Carter doing their "incomplete sentence" nightclub act. The direction and photography are routine, but the filmmakers apparently were concentrating on the ambitious technical gimmicks in the script. Par for Monogram, and a pleasant hour for B-movie fans.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very enjoyable movie., November 14, 2005

This review is from: Charlie Chan in The Scarlet Clue (DVD)

I am Chinese and have heard lots of western people refering to Charlie Chan. I was very curious how Chan was like and bought this DVD. I was not disappointed --- even though this movie was made so many years ago, it is still very entertaining.
