Featured review
Routine second-feature
After a bright start, with mystery writer Evelyn Venable outsmarting D.A. Neil Hamilton, and a murder inside a boxing ring just before the match starts, "Hollywood Stadium Mystery" becomes a very ordinary mystery. It does, however, offer the very rare opportunity to see the largely unknown today Venable in a leading role: she is pretty, competent, and has a pleasingly distinctive voice. ** out of 4.
