Not bad...but I miss Warren William.

Unlike some B-mystery series, there never was a consistent actor to play in all or even most of the Lone Wolf movies. Instead, ten different actors ended up playing this reformed criminal and crime fighter. Warren William played him most often but he was eventually replaced by Gerald Mohr...probably due to William's battle with cancer.

Despite this change, Eric Blore continued playing the Lone Wolf's butler and sidekick, Jamison.

At a Mexican casino, a croupier is murdered. The local police immediately assume the Lone Wolf did it...which is a bit odd since just before this the police Captain was making nice with Lanyard. Additionally, there's a jewel theft...and Michael Lanyard is once again suspected.

Gerald Mohr is decent in the lead, though I prefer Warren William a bit more, as he had a more roguish quality about him. Also, this film didn't work as well for me because it could have used a bit more action. Still, any Lone Wolf film is worth seeing for a nice escapist 60 or so minutes.
