A mostly mediocre ensemble film

The plot, such as it is, involves a Chinese inventor coming up with a way to project live images from around the world in real-time without the need for any sort of broadcast equipment. It's mainly just an excuse to bring an ensemble cast together to do their schtick. It makes for mildly entertaining fluff. There are a few memorable scenes with W.C. Fields and Burns & Allen, but on the whole this is nowhere near essential viewing for fans of either. 5/10
