Storyline

Bulldog Drummond is a British WWI veteran who longs for some excitement after he returns to the humdrum existence of civilian life. He gets what he's looking for when a girl requests his help in freeing her uncle from a nursing home. She believes the home is just a front and that her uncle is really being held captive while the culprits try to extort his fortune from him.

Variety Staff

RTVarietyMar 26, 2009

Entertaining picture of the highly charged thriller meller kind, mostly because of the likable performance of Ronald Colman in his first screamer.

Ralph Flint

RTChristian Science MonitorMar 9, 2024

Bulldog Drummond further signalizes Ronald Colman’s début in talking pictures, and he scores heavily in the new medium. Already a popular star of the silent cinema, he should find his following quadrupled, at least.

Entertaining but primitive early sleuth pic.

E

Emanuel Levy

RTEmanuelLevy.ComAug 21, 2012

Starring Ronald Colman in an Oscar-nominated performance, the film was so pupular that it launched a whole series, with different actors in the lead.
