Tries Too hard to imitate Edgar Wallace

One of Edgar Wallace's trademarks was to have a gang of criminals led by an unknown person who went by such nicknames as "The Frog".In order to let us all in on the fun we would have a disguised glimpse if the head of the gang so that we could try and workout who was the ringleader.Here we are given no such help.We see a number of what are on the surface some unrelated incidents which of course in the end lead us to the head of the gang.I found that after the first couple of murders i became rather uninvolved and couldn't really care who was the chief villain.the film has a very decent cast but unless you are into this particular genre it is actually rather a bore.

Wissenswertes
Re-titled "Bombay Waterfront" for its American release (as the name Paul Temple meant little to US audiences), its earliest documented theatrical showing took place in San Francisco, CA, 8/28/53, supporting Houdini, der König des Variete (1953) at the Paramount Theatre; however, exhibitors and audiences alike were equally unaware that it had already previously been premiered on television under its original UK title, "Paul Temple Returns," in Cleveland, OH, on 5/26/53 on WEWS (Channel 5).

Patzer
The servant, Sakki is clearly of African / West Indian heritage. In fact the actor Dan Jackson came from what is now Guyana. In the film he comes from Rangoon where his mother and brother live. If that were true he would have an Asian appearance.
