It all adds up to remarkably good entertainment, full of excitement, suspense and color. Full Review

The appeal is to the shallower herd instinct, the instinct which prefers, with double instinctiveness, to mistake melodrama for tragedy, and is too willingly moved to tears by a regiment marching-though it knows not whither or why. Full Review

As a spectacle in Technicolor the film is outstanding, and the acting all-round is good, within the limits of the story, which is melodramatic and obvious in conception. Full Review

One might divide the film into three parts: One third -- Cook's Tour; One third -- precise melodramatic hooey; and one blessed third -- Mesers Sabu and Desmond Tester. The latter division... is what makes Drums something that you can't beat (pun). Full Review
