Review of George Town: 'Pride of Penang'

. . . about an organic substance that slowly oozed over everyone, consuming, digesting and absorbing everything around it in an ever-widening circle. GEORGE TOWN is this sort of a fright fest. Though set in Malaysia, every other word coming out of the crazed narrator's mouth seems to be "China." Whether it's Chinese rice, Chinese architecture, Chinese merchants, Chinese funerals, Chinese cooking, Chinese boats, Chinese temples, Chinese spices, Chinese snakes or Chinese wenches, all viewers hear is "China--China--China." It puts one in mind of a wild bull running rampant in--you guessed it!--a China shop.
