Charles Bickford plays the boss of a group of American truck drivers on the Burma Road. They truck supplies over the mountains to the Chinese army for their struggle against the Japanese. Needless to say there are spies and the like under every second rock and bush. Bickford's young brother, Frank Albertson, gets the old knife in the back when he discovers the main turncoat. Bickford rounds up the truckers and off they go to do battle with the Japanese. Not a great film by any means but it zips along at a good pace. Evelyn Ankers is quite good in a non-horror film role and the same applies with Turhan Bey. OK time-waster.
