Fly-By-Night (1942)
Well-paced, atmospheric "B" thriller with a few surprises
3 August 1999 - 17 out of 17 users found this review helpful.
Above-average Paramount "B" thriller from director Robert Siodmak. A few surprises (including an imaginative action sequence and a jolting revelation during a climatic confrontation) elevate a standard falsely-accused-man-on-the-lam plot. Well-paced and atmospheric.

King of the Jungle (1933)
Entertaining Tarzan imitation
3 August 1999 - 5 out of 7 users found this review helpful.
Paramount's answer to Tarzan, with Olympic athlete Buster Crabbe as a child raised to adulthood by a pride of lions. The expected complications result when Buster and his furry pals are transported to a circus. Charmingly clumsy in its early scenes, the film builds to an exciting, fiery conclusion. Animal activists will wince at a brutal battle between some big cats, but otherwise it's very entertaining.
