I watched two chapters of this yesterday. Chapter one is a little bit dupey, but chapter two looks great. I have to say that is a much more entertaining serial than the 1949 sequel. It just feels more like an authentic Batman story, and not just any serial plot slapped together. But it is outrageously racist. I can't believe there isn't a disclaimer somewhere on the box, or on the DVD itself. I'd feel bad if someone would buy this for an asian kid. This one really is pretty offensive, unlike most of the Charlie Chan films and other movies that have stirred controversy.
