Edward G. Robinson even when chewing the props right off the set has some magnetic kind of film personality; here for once he is allowed (or forced) to break the type, and his study of the Doctor is not only lively but a well founded job.

The Amazing Dr. Clitterhouse is a refreshing shift from the consciously witty, would-be sophisticated crime films that have circulated since the advent of The Thin Man.

Mr. Robinson, with his volatility and energy, makes Dr. Clitterhouse a credible if unusual investigator. Supporting cast, including Humphrey Bogart and Claire Trevor, excellent.

Far-fetched but entertaining comedy/gangster melodrama.
