Featured review
This is a good flick!
If you like old mystery/comedies then this tasty morsel is for you. You'll be watching action and comedy with equal doses of each. The story line is pretty original and unique which is rather surprising. The cast has a bunch of eccentric English folk as well as an American guy and a good looking Canadian chick.
It is set in foggy London. It's that kind of fog that you can't see ten feet in front of you. There's bad guys, a burglar, a general, a very eccentric English dowager, a murder, a party full of typical upper crust English odd balls, and, well by now you get the idea. I strongly recommend it. It's excellent.
