Mr. Moto is in Egypt to thwart spies with plans to blow up the French navy with mines. Most of the action takes place in a dive bar where the spies like to congregate and exchange information. Moto hides behind a false identity as an Oriental antique dealer, but is eventually given away. As usual, his jujitsu skills, at least those of Lorre's double, and luck keep him alive. John Carradine is a British agent and George Sanders the spy from an unnamed country, presumably Germany. No worse, and no better, than any other film in the Mr. Moto series. Look fast for the movie theater screening newsreels and a Fox Charlie Chan film!
