Leave your thoughts about Foreign Correspondent.
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsTed PriggeOne of Hitchcock's underrated films, but even today, it is one of his most satisfying, hilarious, and intelligent films. |
| Philadelphia InquirerTirdad DerakhshaniYes, “schmaltzy” and “corny” fit in any description of this 1940 film. The soundstages don’t do justice to Holland or London or the North Atlantic. But what plays over 80 years later is the wit, the Ben Hecht (“The Front Page”) and Benchley-written exchanges between the posh Brit and the American trying to work his way into the political inner circles where Europe was about to take a stand against fascism. |
| Cinema em CenaPablo VillaçaApesar de politicamente relevante para sua época (mérito de Hitchcock), a urgência da trama se perdeu com o passar das décadas, e seus erros tornaram-se mais óbvios, como o forçado romance entre o par principal. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonThe film includes some of Hitchcock's finest set-pieces, including a secret hideout inside a windmill, a murder in broad daylight and a plane crash, even if the romantic subplot tends to slow things down a bit. |
| New York TimesBosley CrowtherDirector Alfred Hitchcock, whose unmistakable stamp the picture bears, has packed about as much romantic action, melodramatic hullabaloo, comical diversion and illusion of momentous consequence as the liveliest imagination could conceive. |
| Los Angeles TimesMichael WilmingtonForeign Correspondent seems a sterling example of how the director could help the war effort by using current events as a launching point for his signature brand of suspense. |
| Q Network Film DeskJames KendrickIt doesn't always proceed as smoothly as some of Hitchcock's best films, but it is never anything less than grandly entertaining. |
| Classic Film and TelevisionMichael E. GrostCreative Hitchcock thriller mixes fun, spectacular set pieces and political depth. |
| Groucho ReviewsPeter CanaveseA fitfully crackerjack picture with astonishing mise-en-scène...some memorable set pieces to take advantage of same, and flashes of Hitchockian wit... [Criterion Blu-ray/DVD] |
| Tim Dirks' The Greatest FilmsTim DirksForeign Correspondent (1940), a Hitchcock spy thriller, is about a hard-headed, American crime reporter and foreign correspondent Johnny Jones |
