Nick Carter- Master Detective tries way to hard to make a B film into an A film. The director uses countless tricky film techniques and camera angles to make the film a classic. The result: Failure!!! Nick Carter good of been one hell of a film without that stuff and the stupid humor that was featured in the film, especially that stupid, annoying Bee-man. He was a total joke and very irritating to watch anytime the old guy's face appeared on screen. It would probably of been better if a child tagged along instead of the annoying old geezer. If the film did without the humor and the Bee-man, the result: Entertaining!!! Nick Carter is noooo Charlie Chan and doesn't have the skill or mind like he does. He's also kind of a bore and sometimes very cardboard like. To sum it all up, at times entertaining but with the humor and old dude the film just isn't that masterful. Charlie Chan kicks Nick Carter's ass anytime, anyplace, anywhere. *1/2 out of ****.
