...seldom that an Englishman even a naturalized Englishman, deigns to compliment Americans, especially on intellectual matters, that Michael Arlen's announcement to the effect that Americans are more avid readers than the English is almost in the nature of a departure from national policy. The novelist goes further and implies that the American reading public mingles with its intellectualism an element of philanthropy, in that its cultural activities serve to prevent the death from malnutrition of many British litterateurs...
...goes through a short tunnel, the same passenger also misses his ticket. Arriving at his destination, a health farm, Errol poses as a detective and makes a bellboy (Stuart Erwin) admire him so much that the bellboy has to be given lessons on how to be a detective.

One element of comic relief is the occasional intrusion of a young boy and girl who have the fearful coyness inevitable in camera-trained children under twelve...
...fair entertainment. Richard Arlen as "Pink" Barker turns his handsome profile often and to good advantage towards the camera. Robert Gleckler is adequate as Rogue Schultz. Fay Wray as Daisy is a bit too literate for a waif reared on an island where cultural advantages were few. Best shot: Diver Arlen meeting the cannibals...
