Reviews for Murder by Decree
Murder by Decree is spiffy entertainment for lovers of good mystery stories.
Plummer and Mason together make one of cinema's great -- certainly the most touching -- Holmes-Watson teams. Ripperologists will be pleased by how faithful the script is to historical incidents and persons involved.
