Leave your thoughts about The Human Factor.
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzA pointless film that valued computers more than it does people. |
| Chicago ReaderDave KehrGraham Greene's impeccably plotted spy story serves Preminger's personal aims with a minimum of modification, as the film develops themes of loneliness, debilitation, and obsessive security—all centered on the tragic survival of moral feeling in a world drained by reason. |
| The New York TimesVincent CanbyA fascinating, slightly chilly picture — as well as one of the best Preminger films in years. |
| Entertainment WeeklyTim PurtellThe Human Factor, a spy saga and Preminger’s final film, is an overlooked gem. |
| NewsweekDavid AnsenIt is a splendidly appropriate project for Otto Preminger, even though he hasn't succeeded at making the most of it. |
| FulvueDrive-in.comChuck O'LearyAn OK revenge thriller that's helped immensely by George Kennedy's sympathetic lead performance. However, there's too much talk and not enough action. |
| User ReviewAshley HThis rating is for the 1975 Ed Dmytryk-Big George Kennedy revenge flick with the kickass final scene. |
| User Revieww. m. lA slow but ultimately intriguing story. Some of the acting's wooden, but Preminger's direction overcomes that. |
| User ReviewPaul DConvoluted spy drama that is continually downbeat. |
