Movie Reviews of The Kennel Murder Case
Movie Review: A classic murder case
Summary: 5 Stars
As with all good murder cases there is some nasty person,Archer Coe (Robert Barrat), that makes everyone he comes in contact want to murder him. You guessed it he apparently committed suicide in a "locked" room.
Of course Philo Vance (William Powell) does not believe it and has to unravel a complex "Who-done-it" and how?
This film is based on a novel by S.S. Van Dyne. And even thought it has William Powell and Mary Astor, two well known actors in it they are not a couple in the movie.
The acting is well done. And you will find many of the elements (character portrayal, gimmicks, and subplots) in later movies.

Movie Review: A marvelous opportunity
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a big fan of William Powell. He is one of the best of the golden age Hollywood actors. I wanted to see him in a role he made his before he did the Thin Man series to see if they were the same character with different names. Fortunately, they're not. I liked this movie. The quality was great. This was obviously a restored film and for that, I'm grateful.
I'll be looking for more Philo Vance movies-
Movie Review: The Kennel Murder Case
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great murder mystery. There are twists and turns from the beginning to the end. There are several movies that have been made over the years since this one, it is often imitated but never made better.Movie Review: Good entertainment
Summary: 5 Stars
I love William Powell. A classy star, I enjoyed this pre Thin Man film. The sound in a couple spots was a little off, probably from the master recording but still quite good for a film made over 70 years ago.
