"A fast-moving and complicated detective mystery!" -- Leonard Maltin Screen-great Peter Lorre mixes business and pleasure in his final appearance as secret-agent Mr. Moto! Packing a full case of "suspense and humor" (General Federation of Women's Clubs), and crammed with "an abundance of exciting incidents" (Monthly Film Bulletin). Mr. Moto Takes a Vacation is a riveting, rollicking tour of adventure -- from its perilous points of departure...to its nail-biting destination! All work and no play makes Mr. Moto (Lorre) a busy detective! Mr. Moto heads to Egypt to thwart a criminal mastermind determined to steal the priceless crown of the Queen of Sheba. But the action heats up and the supense soars when the precious treasure begins its perilous journey to America and Mr. Moto must race against time to unmask a cunning thief who will stop at nothing -- not even murder -- to get what he wants!
