SoftInloveRox Horrible, fascist and poorly acted

ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

sol1218 ***SPOILERS*** The "Bowery Boys" get the startling news from British solicitor Allison J. Higby, at Louie Dumbrowsky's Sweet Shop in the Bowery that one of their illustrious members Sach or Horace Dumbussy Jones, as he's legally known as, is related to the filthy rich English Earl of Walsingham! It turns out that this guy-the Earl-is loaded to the gills owning coal mines in Wessex textile mills in Essex an exclusive sporting lodge, that the British Royal Family members attends annually, in Sussex and to round things off is part owner of an NBA Basketball team in Phoenix!Getting on the first boat sailing for jolly old England the boys, Slip Sach Butch & Chuck, together with Louie Dumbrowsky who was a stowaway, by getting himself smashed at the going away party and forgetting to leave the boat, on board finally get to Walsingham Castel only to find out that the Earl's, who's on his deathbed, fortune is to be divided among his greedy relatives who in fact, by slipping poison in his medication, are tying to murder him. Sach for his part brings the Earl back to health by substituting his "medication" with ice cream and cookies that makes his relatives mad as hell. So mad that they plan to do Sach as well as the Earl in before he changes his will and leaves everything, the sporting lodge coal mines textile mills and basketball team, over to Sach!***SPOILERS*** The "Bowery Boys" go into action foiling the Earl of Walsingham's relatives from murdering him but the Earl now on his feet and ready for action, due to Sach treating him, does a pretty good job himself with his Olympic caliber fencing skills. The sad thing about all this is in the end when all the dust is cleared and the Earl safely out of harms way it turns out that Sach is not the Horace Dembussy Jones who's related to him. That's a guy named Jones in far off Australia! And what do you think Sach & the "Bowery Boys" together with Louie get for all the trouble they went through in saving the Earl's life from the grateful Earl, who's worth billions, himself? A measly 1,000 pound sterling which isn't even pocket change for him! That lousy and ungrateful cheapskate!

bkoganbing Possible good fortune knocks on the door of Louie's Sweet Shop on the Bowery where four guys who every now and then have jobs are known to hang out. It seems as though a fellow with the high sounding moniker of Horace DeBussy Jones might actually rate that kind of a name. He could be the long lost descendant of a collateral branch of the Earl of Walsingham's family. And the current Earl is not doing all that well health wise.Instead of just Huntz Hall coming over the whole gang departs and the sight of them seems to perk the old Earl played by Walter Kingsford up. They've been slowly poisoning him in the hopes of at least one of them being made his heir. But Kingsford is actually charmed by the moronic clowning of The Bowery Boys and he goes off the medicines the relatives have him on and starts getting a little color back in his cheeks.The relatives are played by Norma Varden, Angela Greene, William Cottrell, John Dodsworth, and Rex Evans and they're not happy about their cousin from across the pond to say the least. It might further their interests if Kingsford got more suddenly dispatched and the Bowery Boys blamed for it.The Bowery Boys recycle a lot of material from other films and use it in their's. The characters of Walsingham family come from just about every film with an English setting you can name. Still the results here aren't too bad. Huntz Hall's battle with a stuffed fox that may still have some life in it is a classic.This Bowery Boys film did not have all that much of Leo Gorcey and his original language malapropisms. Huntz Hall has center stage here and if you are fans of his, this film is for you.

wes-connors An English messenger arrives at the "Sweet Shop" with some startling news - harebrained Huntz Hall (as Horace Debussy "Sach" Jones) is the blue-blooded heir to a potential fortune. To claim his prize, Mr. Hall sails to jolly old England, to meet his worldly relatives, and divvy up the riches. Of course, "Bowery Boys" leader Leo Gorcey (as Terrence Aloysius "Slip" Mahoney) accompanies Hall, as financial adviser and extended pinkie trainer. Other travelers include David "Condon" Gorcey (as Chuck Anderson), Benny Bartlett (as Butch Williams), and reluctant stowaway Bernard Gorcey (as Louie Dumbrowsky). In Hall's ancestral castle, relatives plot to get rid of the competition. Cheap, obvious, and occasionally funny.**** Loose in London (5/24/53) Edward Bernds ~ Huntz Hall, Leo Gorcey, Bernard Gorcey, Norma Varden

Ramar Fair is fair Oliver came to America to make movies, so America sent its finest...Mr. Huntz Hall to England.
