Charlie Chan is in Paris just before the war, and Paris is in Darkness because of it's fear of being bombed! What better time to commit murder! A munitions shipper is bumped off, and suspects galore abound. Aided by a bumbling french police chief, Chan looks for clues and weeds out suspects. A few problems in this one.. Too much humor given to the police chief, and none of Chan's children make an appearance, which weakens this. Seems Toler was phoning this one in.

A little blander than most in the Charlie Chan series, but it's still good and worth watching.Interesting that it was set in Paris during the Munich crisis black-out in 1938. Well acted.

Normally I really like Charlie Chan films. This one I could not get into at all. It started out awkward, if that makes any sense. It is not like the typical Charlie Chan formula. It was too war based. If I wanted to see a war movie, I would have rented one. Carlie's number two son, Jimmy was not in it either. I really look forward to seeing Victor Sen Yung in the Sidney Toler version of Charlie Chan films. Try another one instead.

Charlie seems virtually somnambulant here as personified by Sidney Toler. Perhaps this is because he is overshadowed by Harold Huber who is way way way over the top as a comedic French assistant prefect of police. Or perhaps it is because he realizes that WWII is about to break out. Indeed, the film explicitly mentions Chamberlain's visit to Hitler after the takeover of Czechoslovakia and the mystery revolves around the death of a munitions smuggler in Paris (working for the other side). So, it is a particularly sombre affair and the comic relief is a bit too heavy-handed. Still, this series somehow will always take me away from any real problems I might face, at least temporarily.

This was one of the poorer Charlie Chan episodes.
