This is a remake of the lost Warner Oland film, "Charlie Chan Carries On". It is also a fun film in its own right even though it borrows a plot gimmick from another Warner Oland Chan film.There's murder aboard a world cruise and Charlie must take charge when an old friend is murdered in his office. The supporting cast is loaded with familiar faces: Lionel Atwill, Leo Carroll, Charles "Ming the Merciless" Middleton, Robert Lowrey, Marjorie Weaver, and Layne Tom, Jr. as No. 8 Son, Willie Chan. (Tom had previously played Charlie Chan, Jr. in the Warner Oland film, "Charlie Chan at the Olympics".) Sen Yung is funny as Jimmy Chan.
