Storyline
In this early collaboration with director Tod Browning (Dracula, Freaks), Chaney delivers a dual performance of dramatic intensity, starring as Ah Wing, a kind-hearted student of Confucian philosophy, and Black Mike Sylva, a murderous rake of the San Francisco underworld.—Anonymous

Short Review
It doesn't quite have the personal touches that Browning's later films would have, but it's a strong entertainment nonetheless.
