Movie Reviews

Monthly Film Bulletin - 10/10 by MFB CriticsThe scenario writer has wisely concentrated on a well-knit and straightforward plot. The result is thoroughly holding entertainment.
New York Times - 9/10 by Theodore StraussIn The Stars Look Down Mr. Reed has made a film to be remembered in this or any other season.
Eye for Film - 7/10 by Keith H. BrownA well-mounted piece of filmmaking, with Reed drawing good performances from a talented cast and handling most scenes, particularly the nail-biting tragic/predictable climax, well.
Variety - 6/10 by Variety StaffThere are some gaps where treatment is not on par with dramatic situation.
User Review - 8/10 by David LVery gripping and a great piece of social realism of a mining community.
User Review - 8/10 by Arman Aa great film; a bit slow at times, but an excellent watch
User Review - 8/10 by Paul DFIRST RATE BRITISH DRAMA, SUPERBLY ACTED BY REDGRAVE. EXCELLENT STORY, THOUGHTFULLY DIRECTED BY CAROL REED.
User Review - 6/10 by Kayleigh PNot a bad film, although some parts failed to hold my attention for long. I think it ended rather abruptly, but perhaps thats just me being too critical.
User Review - 6/10 by Steven CAnother great film with Michael Redgrave and Margret Lockwood, this time in a more serious setting. Faultless actoring. Watch out for the other couple from "The Lady Vanishes" to !!!
