Customer Reviews

Charlie Chan at the Opera (1936)

Based on characters created by Earl Derr Biggers, we recognize the characters from other Chan movies. In this film, Warner Oland plays the notable Charlie Chan. This movie has a significant surprise with the cast of actors for a standard Chan production. We get to hear Boris Karloff sing and show that he can act in roles beyond Frankenstein’s monster. Keye Luke plays Lee Sone in the Chan films. Keye Luke looks quite different from Master Po in the Kung Fu TV series. A noisy singing amnesiac sees a paper that jogs his memory. Now that his memory is restored, it’s time for a review. Can Charlie figure it out before there's no one left in the opera house?
