My nitpicks are as numerically proceeds:
1) Shrevnitz (i.e., the cabdriver) did not instruct the oriental scientist upon how the Shadow would contact him, which is what the Shadow previously claimed. Instead, the Shadow basically instructed him.
2) Is it my imagination, or is there too much driving the wrong way in the left lane during the course of this film? Then again, it is more evident with the taxicabs.
3) Margo Lane is unaffected by the Shadow but not by the villain. I always found this to be odd and ludicrous.
4) The villain's Mongol warriors go unnoticed in New York City? Perhaps that is a rhetorical question.
5) The elderly scientist closes the exterior of the bomb. Subsequently, the villain commands him to set the timer. The only way he could set the timer is by opening the bomb again. Yet, this is never observed.

Its possible that the city was also hypnotised to ignore the warriors as well as the hotel. Then again, it is New York.

Margo's father has red-green color blindness. At the end, when they're working on the bomb, her father announces that they need to cut the red wire (or green; it's been awhile), and promptly reaches for the wrong color. Margo grabs the proper one, just in time (natch).
Problem is, if he's color blind, what if he had gotten the colors mixed up in the first place? For that matter, why would he used colored wires that he could not distinguish? Why not yellow or orange or blue or something like that?

I think the major problem with this film was the scriptwriter couldn't decide what version of The Shadow to use.
There was the interesting, if completely out of character, idea that The Shadow could only know what evil lurks in the hearts of men if he had been evil.
Then he tried to blend it with the humorous High Society moments that either came from the radio show, and/or Mike Kaluta's artwork on DC Comics The Shadow comic.
The villain came from the pulp stories.
The ability to cloud men's minds came from the radio show.
The end result was a mess.

The filmmakers couldn't decide if The Shadow could really turn invisible or if it was just hypnotism.
For instance, The Shadow is locked inside that water container. No one else is in there, but he stays invisible for awhile.
IIRC it also happens later when The Shadow is walking through an empty hotel lobby.

D. during WWII two reporters dressed up like SS Officers & walked around New York. No one questioned them about it.

D.K. the creators did it because they thought it was funny. (Is there a Glossary term for that?) For another bad use of color blindness watch the Blakes 7 ep Orac.

Haven't actually seen this one (and doubt I would want to). I have seen a couple of stills on a Shadow web site (which is the basis of this question). Is it me, or does Margot Lane look really slutty?

anyone know where I could get information on who to contact about The Shadow?
I write short stories and had a very good one (or I like to think its good) reguarding the Shadow, but I was told I would need to speak with the people who have the copywrites to the material.
I can't seem to find out who to contact, if anyone knows please contact me at:

thank you.

Was it just me or was Alex Baldwin wearing a fake nose?

His nose is bigger when he's the Shadow, but in some shots they seem to have forgotten to have him or the stunt double wear the appliance. Why they went with that concept is another question.

One can only wonder how seriously a threat by an Asian to destroy New York would have been taken in the 1930s. I tend to suspect the answer would be "Not very," so Khan's threat seemed kind of pointless. He might as well destroy New York, THEN threaten to destroy say Washington, having proven he can pull it off.

The Shadow's twin pistols were specially built for the film, the idea being to make them look even more menacing by being bigger than standard Colt M1911s.

I've seen complaints that there's too much Lamont Cranston and not enough Shadow. Seems like another case of the filmmakers deciding they need to get every bit of footage possible showing the mug of their big name star. Judge Dredd was of course a blatant example of this.

While I am a fan of this film,I was disappointed in the end with The Shadow not appearing as The Shadow!Its Alec Baldwin minus the haunting facial visage,hat & scarf,running after the villain.I want to see The Shadow in battle,I can see AB as himself in "any" of his other motion pictures.I did like that they set the film in another era for a change of pace.Love to see another Shadow film soon.How about this one:The Shadow meets The Rocketeer?

Maybe it's just due to lack of familiarity with the source material, and I know I'm in the minority, but I loved this movie. I thought it was funny, clever, and inventive- with a great score and great effects for the time.

I wouldn't say I loved this movie but it was hilarious and I never get tired of watching it! So many great lines, it's just a fun movie, even if it is a tad on the cheesy side.
