When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Passenger to London is a murky spy thriller, made in Britain and lasting just an hour in length. There are no famous actors in it so it has a very low rent feel. The story sees a secret agent sending a secret message on a train journey before being murdered. His contacts in London then have to figure out the meaning of his message and also try to solve his murder at the same time. This film's the definition of a potboiler, shot at speed on the cheap and with a very familiar storyline. However, it also features enough incident and sinister characters lurking around to hold your interest throughout.

'Passenger To London' runs at just under an hour but it seems longer as it is a bit dull. Most of it is set in a small hotel. Secret blueprints are secreted in the luggage of a woman traveling to London and our heroes attempts to track down the lady and thus the plans while evading the clutches of the villains, Vautel and Veinberg (great names!). It all sorts itself out in the end. Ho hum. It could have done with more pace and excitement. John Warwick as our main hero Frank Drayton is unfortunately rather irritating but Dorothy Dewhurst as the hotel owner and Sybil Brooke as the hotel guest are entertaining at least. Jenny Laird as the girl innocently caught up in the missing blueprint business is sweet and easy on the eyes. The ubiquitous Ben Williams has a small role.The director Lawrence Huntington made better films later including the excellent 'Mr. Perrin and Mr. Traill' (1948),

This low budget spy thriller about the murder of an agent who had retrieved some stolen blueprints which he hid in the luggage of an unsuspecting fellow train passenger just minutes before being murdered is quite entertaining and zips along at a good pace. This is due in no small part to the engaging lead actors, John Warwick and Jenny Laird. I had not heard of these actors before but evidently they went on to pretty solid television careers. Laird appeared in some TV shows (Morse and Midsomer Murders) that I am sure I've seen. The residential hotel setting was interesting and the minor subplot of the exchanges between the hotel manager and an irritating and daffy guest were amusing. Watching this is a pleasant way to spend 57 minutes.

A very solid and relatively short British espionage film. A government agent is returning from France with secret blueprints that were stolen from his government. On the train ride home, thieves break into his compartment and murder him. But the agent anticipated his attackers and managed to hide the blueprints.The British government sends out another agent, this time Frank Drayton (John Warwick) tries to recover the missing blueprints. The viewer knows the blueprints have been hidden in the luggage of a female passenger on the train. While Drayton works to recover the documents he also sets out to learn who murdered his fellow agent.
