Featured review
Lone Wolf, an ace detective who was a jewel thief, functions to safeguard British military objectives during WWII from Nazi German espionage agents as The Blitz is on
Immerse yourself in London fogs and the Blitz-spirit as the Lone Wolf, as played by the inimitable Warren William with his dulcet tones, hunts down Nazi spies, but the good guys think he has stolen plans to sell to the Nazis. We, as the viewer, know this isn't the case. This is a highly enjoyable wartime comedy thriller with a tautly drawn plot, vivid wartime atmosphere and some good tension. Lone Wolf shows his guile when finding the hide-out of some German spies by retracing his steps he made when taken to the hide-out blindfold. There's plenty of subterfuge, treachery and cloak and dagger.
