Good actioner with Fairbanks at his dashing best, posing as a foppish gent while attempting to clear his father's name of a crime he did not commit. Finally cornering the true thief and murderer, Sydney, Fairbanks takes him on in the ring and pounds him senseless before turning him over to
the police. Some spectacular scenes, particularly the ballroom sequences, give this production a lavish look, though the male dancers are a little more light on their feet than the direction might have called for. Landi, a stunning beauty and solid actress, is unfortunately given little to do in
this intriguing yarn.
