Essentially a crime noir thriller with a twist, Paul McGuigan's film is showy and sharp, whose witty dialogue is delivered with a shrug

Frighteningly authentic, the story generates only a modicum of drama.

Em um de seus trabalhos mais subestimados, Hitchcock cria uma atmosfera angustiante e claustrofóbica a partir de incidentes nada espetaculares, sendo auxiliado pela atuação precisa de Fonda.

Fine if lower keyed Hitchcock with Fonda as wrongly accused man whose life is wrecked.

A standout piece in Hitchcock's oeuvre and a film that richly deserves its place among the filmmaker's greatest works.

Perhaps the most underrated and least known of Hitchcock's great films.

In Hitchcock's litany, it ranks as one of the most forgettable works from his mature era.
