The (hungry) lions (and a young Anthonny Quinn, as a bad guy) are what may help you remember this entry in the "Bulldog Drummond" series, since by this point the films have started to blend together completely. The lions also offer pretty much the only "African flavor" to the film - if it weren't for them, the action could just as well have taken place in, say, Canada instead of Morocco. The film gets a slight boost from the return of Heather Angel in the role of Phylis (her Phylis is more adventurous and danger-loving than the one played by Louise Campbell), and Tenny ("I rather like it, sir!") continues consistently to be funny; on the other hand, Algy continues consistently not to be. ** out of 4.
