Movie Reviews

The New Yorker - 10/10 by Pauline KaelThe Lavender Hill Mob, along with Passport to Pimlico and Genevieve, is one of British cinema's most evocative films.
Time Out - 10/10 by Tom HuddlestonCharles Crichton’s direction is subtle but inventive – check out the snaking, near-single-take opening in a Rio cabana – and the performances, writing and plotting are faultless.
Total Film - 10/10 by Jamie RussellInflation may have dented the allure of its 1m bullion heist, but this 1951 Ealing comedy is still 24-carat gold.
Empire Magazine - 10/10 by David ParkinsonAlec Guinness shines in this hilarious British comedy.
Daily Telegraph (UK) - 10/10 by Sukhdev SandhuHelped by a peerless script and a great team of actors (Alfie Bass and Sid James as professional thieves; Stanley Holloway as an oratory-inclined artist-scamster), the film is both a joyous comedy and a tense thriller.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 8/10 by Emanuel LevyAlec Guinness received a well deserved Oscar nomination for this hilarious British comedy
Guardian - 8/10 by Peter BradshawIt's tremendously good fun, though lighter in tone than Ealing's two scabrous masterpieces Kind Hearts and Coronets and The Ladykillers, and not quite matching their elegant perfection; I've never been able to rid myself of the feeling that, however superbly set up, the aftermath of the heist itself is ever so slightly lacking in tension.
Sarasota Herald-Tribune - 8/10 by Christopher LloydThe real joy of the movie is less about the caper than these two invisible, workaday men discovering the thrills of attempting something extraordinary - even if it is felonious.
Los Angeles Alternative - 8/10 by Jay AntaniFun, perfectly realized Ealing Studios outing
The A.V. Club - 8/10 by Keith PhippsThough [Guinness's] performance may not immediately announce itself as his best, it's certainly one of his most representative, a thoroughly recognizable character of unseen depths and unexpected capabilities.
