Movie Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Mick LaSalleThe movie is more interesting than achieved: it's the most forthright statement of the transference theme in Hitchcock's work, but it's also the least nuanced.
The Guardian - 10/10 by Philip OltermannIn the work of someone so exhaustively appreciated as Hitchcock, you wouldn't expect to find forgotten masterpieces but I Confess is one. It might never catch fire, but it smoulders gloriously.
Slant Magazine - 10/10 by Eric HendersonI Confess ultimately reveals itself to be one of Hitchcock’s most successful examinations of the tension between public image and private turmoil.
The Retro Set - 8/10 by Nathanael HoodBut of [Hitchcock's] non-suspense films, I Confess may be his greatest triumph.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 8/10 by Dennis SchwartzThe sincerely intense performances by Malden and Clift make this minor Hitchcock tale seem like a major Hitchcock tale.
Variety - 8/10 by Variety StaffWhile Hitchcock short-changes on the expected round of suspense for which he is noted, he does bring out a number of topflight performances and gives the picture an interesting polish that is documentary at times.
Decent Films Guide - 8/10 by Steven D. GreydanusMay or may not rank with Hitch's greatest masterpieces, but its premise offers perhaps the most compelling variation on his favorite theme, the innocent man wrongly accused.
Chicago Reader - 7/10 by Dave KehrThe movie is more interesting than achieved: it's the most forthright statement of the transference theme in Hitchcock's work, but it's also the least nuanced.
Empire Magazine - 6/10 by Kim NewmanIt'll never be remembered as a Hitchcock classic by any stretch, but that is far from saying it's the mess that some regard it as. It's entertaining, and the visuals speak volumes more than the over-cooked dialogue. Worth a look.
Old School Reviews - 6/10 by John A. NesbitThe biggest crime surrounding I Confess is the generally indifferent reception that the film has received over the years
