Adventures of Smilin' Jack: Attacked by Bombers on AllMovie

Although he appeared to have been shot by Japanese agent Yoshudo (Jack Gardner) in chapter two of Universal's Adventures of Smilin' Jack, our hero (Tom Brown) was only faking and quickly gets the upper hand. En route to Chungking with Janet (Marjorie Lord and Mah Ling (Cyril Delevanti), the governor of Mandon, Smilin' Jack's radio communication is intercepted by Axis agent Fraulein Von Teufel (Rose Hobart) and her Japanese cohort Kageyama (Turhan Bey). Although the latter is at first dubious, the fraulein uses her powers to order a Japanese bombing raid on Chungking. Believing that he is communicating with the Chinese, Smilin' Jack is rerouted to Fuchang, where Japanese soldiers kidnap Mah Ling and Tommy (Edgar Barrier), Janet's brother. Having remained in the airplane, Janet (Marjorie Lord) and Smilin' Jack avoid capture and are able to track the hijackers' vehicle from the air. Leaving the plane behind to follow in a Chinese truck, the pursuers are surprised by an enemy bombing attack, and their vehicle careens out of control.
