Leave your thoughts about Dark Victory.
| Common Sense MediaNell MinowBette Davis loses her sight, and we gain a classic. |
| Creative LoafingMatt BrunsonOne of the finest weepies ever made by Hollywood. Davis is nothing short of magnificent. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyOne of Bette Davis' best acted, most enjoyable melodrama, in which she gloriously plays a dying blind woman. |
| Slant MagazineKeith UhlichEven by the standards of a typical Bette Davis melodrama Dark Victory is an embarrassment of riches. |
| CinePassionFernando F. CroceBette Davis's frisky sprint sets the pace |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzA classic women's pic that strings together a collection of syrupy clichés that can make a real man double up in pain. |
| Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)Bob BloomA classic women's weeper with Bette Davis at her peak. |
| Filmcritic.comChris BarsantiWhat happens when a three-hankie picture just isn't that sad? You get Dark Victory. |
| Film Freak CentralWalter ChawIt's horribly dated, playing today like some weird, contrived burlesque of common sense. |
| User ReviewLinda MGREATEST ACTRESS EVER ! WONDERFUL WEEPIE.. |
