Movie Reviews

Chicago Tribune - 10/10 by Michael WilmingtonThat old master of screen melodrama, Alfred Hitchcock, and Writer John Steinbeck have combined their distinctive talents in a tremendously provocative film—indeed, a surprisingly unique one—titled Lifeboat.
Hollywood Reporter - 10/10 by Douglas PrattThe characters are reasonably free of cliched personalities, so what happens between them is rarely predictable, and there are enough crises and tensions within the 96-minute running time to hold a viewer fully attentive.
Slant Magazine - 10/10 by Dan CallahanLifeboat is actually much more complicated than it first appears. Its emphasis on moral debates in dialogue can seem a little dry, but Hitchcock’s shifting sympathies guarantee our guilty involvement with the characters until he builds to a climax of intellectual and spiritual excitation.
Cinemaphile.org - 9/10 by David KeyesHere is the closest the director probably ever came to making an insightful statement about the dreadful world he and his peers lived in.
The A.V. Club - 8/10 by Keith PhippsThe roots of reality TV can be found here, but unlike most reality TV, Hitchcock shows a genuine (though characteristically distant) interest in people.
Empire - 8/10 by Angie ErrigoAlong with the psychological intrigue there is romance and wit. And fans will enjoy Hitch's most amusing trademark cameo: photographed as before and after silhouettes in a newspaper ad for diet product Reduco.
Old School Reviews - 8/10 by John A. NesbitOnly Hitchcock could pull off this compelling drama in such tight quarters!
LarsenOnFilm - 8/10 by Josh LarsenThis is one of [Hitchcock's] significant works, accented by wickedly effective insert shots and a handful of strong performances.
New York Times - 8/10 by Bosley CrowtherThat old master of screen melodrama, Alfred Hitchcock, and Writer John Steinbeck have combined their distinctive talents in a tremendously provocative film.
Variety - 8/10 by Variety StaffDespite that it's a slow starter, the picture, from the beginning, leaves a strong impact and, before too long, develops into the type of suspenseful product with which Hitchcock has always been identified.
