Reviews for Fear and Desire
[A] highly promising first effort by one of America's premiere filmmakers.
Stanley Kubrick's long-unseen first feature film, recommended solely as a curio.
If Fear and Desire is uneven and sometimes reveals an experimental rather than a polished exterior, its over-all effect is entirely worthy of the sincere effort put into it.
It's probably the film's metaphorical riffs that Kubrick found most pretentious
