Panama Patrol (1939)
2/10
Were we fighting the wrong folks?
9 February 2021
This espionage film from poverty row Grand National Pictures seems to advance the proposition that our soon to be oriental foes in the upcoming war would be the Chinese. Worse than that we have a traitor in our midst in the cipher section of the War Department. Is there no end to the treachery of these oriental folks whomever they might be?

Leon Ames and Weldon Heyburn are on the trail of saboteurs looking to do in the Panama Canal essential to the navy and our sea security. Secretary Charlotte Wynters suspects who the traitor is and is nearly done in for her troubles.

Very little production value here and the climax is rather anti-climatic I couldn't believe this was a sequel to another film starring Ames and Wynters. Could this fil have done well enough to warrant a sequel?

The mind boggles.
