6/10
Probably the best of the John Howard Drummonds

I can't say I was especially thrilled by any of the Bulldog Drummond films starring John Howard that I've seen so far (in fact, it is quite hard to tell them apart), but "Arrest Bulldog Drummond" may well be the best of them; it seems to be the most action-packed, the most incident-filled, the most eager-to-please. There are lots of pyrotechnics, a fine bad girl (Jean Fernwick, who on the basis of this should have had a more distinguished career than a long string of uncredited parts!), and Heather Angel in shorts! Yes, her legs are amazing. The film also has a strong sense of family - particularly in a scene where Tenny, Algy and Nielson are overjoyed to discover that Hugh is alive and well after having disappeared for four days. If one Drummond-Howard film is enough for your viewing experience, try to make it this one. **1/2 out of 4.
