8/10
A connoisseur's delight.

Warning: Spoilers
Here's another Universal "B" picture with a very interesting cast. The script is good too. And as for the director, the films of John Rawlins are always worth seeming, and "Bombay Clipper" is definitely no exception. In fact, it is definitely one of his best!

Another point in the movie's favor is that it was photographed by Stanley Cortez, one of Hollywood's finest cameramen. If anything, Cortez's work here is quite exceptional, In fact, I would describe it as a connoisseur's delight.

The players are first-rate too! The always impressive William Gargan (pronounced "Garrie'gun") has the lead role and he is most ably supported by Maria Montez, Irene Hervey, Charles Lang, and in a smaller role, Turhan Bey (pronounced "Two-ron-bay").

Murder on a luxury liner is always fascinating theme - and this movie is certainly no exception!
