PRO Reviews
|
| | | A well-knit and workmanlike job of writing. | | | (Variety) | | | The objective is carried out briskly and to our complete satisfaction. | | | | | (New York Times) | | | The film keeps up the tension without descending to the sadism which is the usual stock-in-trade of the horrific. | | | | | (Dilys Powell, Sunday Times) | | | Beautifully shot, intelligently constructed. | | | | | (Peter John Dyer, 1966) | | | A perfect vehicle for Hope’s bluff, cowardly persona. Predictable, but surprisingly atmospheric (Sondergaard helps no end) and often very funny. | | | (Geoff Andrew, Time Out Film Guide, 1998) | | | | The comedy-thriller par excellence, with Bob Hope fresh and sympathetic. | | | | | (Halliwell's Film Guide, 2004) | |
