Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
This film contains one of Hitchcock's most famous set pieces -- an assassination in the rain -- but otherwise remains a second-rate effort, as immensely enjoyable as it is.

fresh:
Story is essentially the old cops-and-robbers. But it has been set in a background of international political intrigue of the largest order.

fresh:
Into it Director Alfred Hitchcock, whose unmistakable stamp the picture bears, has packed about as much romantic action, melodramatic hullabaloo, comical diversion and illusion of momentous consequence as the liveliest imagination could conceive.

Hitchcock's espionage thriller is a thoroughly enjoyable affair, complete with some of his most memorable set pieces.
