Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Portia Hilton Blistering performances.

Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

mark.waltz Somewhat dull compared to other adventures starring the wonderful Rin Tin Tin Jr., already from a legacy line of noble dogs whose descendants are equally famous today. This one involves Rin being witness to the murder of a holder of valuable bonds and the Mountie's determination to find the real killer and free accused Lois Wilde. Rin is smarter than the mounties, and ultimately the killer, having already been smart enough to play dead when the killer shot at him. Rather quiet and staticy, this is only saved by a nice final action sequence, but much of the film is akin to watching paint dry. Francis X. Bushman pales in comparison to his own famous father and especially his canine co- star.

MartinHafer Because of the success of Rin-Tin-Tin, a new dog christened 'Rin-Tin-Tin Junior' began making movies after the original Rinnie was no longer with us. Whether or not Junior was actually related to the original dog is something I didn't know--so I did a bit of research and found, surprisingly, that he was the son of the original! The film begins in the home of a French-Canadian old coot. His accent is VERY thick and a bit over-the-top and I felt the guy needed subtitles so I could follow what he said, but it didn't matter for long, as soon a jerk-face showed up and killed him! Apparently he was looking for some bonds and was willing to kill to get them. Because Rinnie, Jr. was locked outside, he couldn't stop this tragedy. However, the dog carries a grudge well, as later he recognizes the culprit--it's the leader of the local Mounties! This surprised me, as in every other movie I saw, the Mounties were completely virtuous and wholesome. Someone forgot to tell this guy! Is he even a real Mountie?! How will this all end and how will Rinnie, Jr. save the day?! While the dog was a pretty good actor for a dog, the same cannot be said of some of the human actors. It wasn't only the practically incomprehensible old man, but his daughter (Lois Wilde) could barely deliver her lines. These are indicative that this film, unlike the original Rin-Tin-Tin ones was NOT made by a premier studio but tiny Reliable Pictures--a company I have never heard of and I am sure the same goes for you. It was also rather funny how the dog just KNEW where to find the various clues! Even Charlie Chan wasn't that good! The film, while tolerable, looked cheap and was just a time-passer--and a not particularly distinguished one at that.

Joe Bridge Painfully bland Canadian Mountie movie starring Rin Tin Tin (Jr.) with most of the actors barely showing any emotion and saying their lines in a matter-of-fact "let's get this done on the first take" kinda way. The only actual acting is by Earl Dwire (Inspector Bradshaw), who brings some humanity, certainty, and nobility to the otherwise static cast.Not much to say, just a simple plot involving embezzled funds and a woman who is brave enough to try to stop it, which is the basis for the whole thing. Being "smart", she sends the bonds to her uncle, which of course gets him killed, but there is no "oh I feel so guilty" here, which I did expect. In fact, this rather odd nuance in the plot is just taken for granted by every single character in this. Ah well.One thing that kind of stood out was the nearly complete lack of sound and music. Music would have helped in some parts, as there are times when I was almost waiting for some mournful strings or some action music, but...nothing. There is one scene where Rinty looks as if he is snarling, but no growls emerge. Yes, other movies like this do not have a soundtrack, but for some reason, I noticed it more in this one. Still, the lack of sound was very effective with the first shots of the forest and the cabin.At no time anywhere in the movie was I remotely convinced that the dog was actually of above average intelligence or that he was injured in any way (especially when he was slinking along near the cabin and just immediately stood up to do the climbing bit). Still worth a watch, though, primarily for historical reasons and film research.For some bizarre reason, the UK title is supposedly "Get That Girl", which makes less sense than even "Caryl of the Mountains".But thank goodness it's only about an hour long.5/10

Spuzzlightyear Francis X. Bushman Jr. (Yes, his son!) and Rin Tin Tin Jr. (blood line questionable) star together in this somewhat implausible, but still entertaining barn-buster featuring an RCMP officer trying to find out who murdered a fur trapper, and why the fur trapper's daughter has embezzled from the company she works for! Happily, Rin Tin Tin is there to help sort out this mystery (Damn, that is one smart dog.. He knows who's the bad guy and the good guy AND which path the bad guys take to escape!). So this is all nonsense, not really to be taken seriously (including the atrocious Canadian accents and the RCMP mistakes!) but nevertheless good for an hour to kill.
