| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzKubrick has created a sinister noir film. |
| VarietyVariety StaffKubrick's low-key lensing occasionally catches the flavor of the seamy side of Gotham life. |
| Antagony & EcstasyTim BraytonFaced with hardly any budget to speak of, the 26-year-old Kubrick pulled out every trick that an independent filmmaker of no means could ever hope to stumble upon. |
| Chicago ReaderJonathan RosenbaumA noirish thriller with experimental trimmings that holds back most of the emotions, sensitive as well as otherwise, that threatened to make Kubrick's first feature mawkish. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonFrankly, it's a pretty wretched story, but this small, cheap film has style to spare. |
| New York TimesJanet MaslinKubrick worked in an uncharacteristically naturalistic style despite the genre material, with mixed but still fascinating results. |
| User ReviewJaeger TThe beginning of Kubrick. Hints of the genius that made him the greatest director of all time. |
| User ReviewAndy SKubrick being my favorite director/moviemaker, it was a real treat to see what he was capable of doing even without a crew and a low budget. It's definitely his most non-Kubrick film meaning that he was still trying out his style with the camera and the way tell the story. Regardless, it was a pretty interesting story, although short. How about that mannequin factory fight scene, huh? I thought it was really original and interesting and the fight sequence seemed very genuine. Overall, it was a great movie. It was really cool to see a director and one of my biggest inspirations sort of hone in on his craft and generate his own style almost like watching a genius in the making. |
| User Reviewkyle cabsolutely brilliant movie. amazing camera work. this movie is an hour long, but kubrick used every minute to craft a great story and mood. |
| User ReviewMarten LKubricks' first film, the symbolism and inventive use of light and shadow show that Kubrick is a god among men. Even at his earliest he proved that he was better then every director before or sense. |
