I knew that this was a 'B' movie when I purchased it. But with Boris Karloff as the lead character, I knew that this effort wasn't a total loss. I was right! This story had enough in it in the matter of twists and turns to force me to pay attention - the ending was quite surprising (I should tell you - but I won't!!). The price is right! If you want to be entertained, and don't mind 'B' movies, then may I suggest this one?
Four stars for Boris Karloff and British Intelligence!

Karloff's 1940 classic "British Intelligence" is a motion picture rife with World War 1 imagery portrayed by the generation who fought that epic struggle.

British Intelligence has more betrayals than a faculty tenure meeting, more twists and turns than a lobbyist testifying before Congress. It takes place in London in 1917. World War I seems an endless conflict, with British secrets making their way to the Germans and the British determined to catch the master German spy, Franz Strendler. This is a great example of a solid B movie, carefully crafted, that packs more complex adventure into 61 minutes than you might believe.
Let's see...there's ... Read More

Set during the last part of World War I, this spy thriller begins with the frustrations of the British military over the way the Germans seem to know their next move before they even do. It's obvious there is a spy or leak somewhere that needs to be stopped if they are to have any success in the War. Boris Karloff and Margaret Lindsay enter into the picture. Individually or together, they could be British agents, German agents, or double agents, and the true identity of each is revealed at the climax. ... Read More
