Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
The plot turns upon a lost diamond of great price, but mostly the film is a string of lively, unrelated escapades.

TIME Magazine,
15 Oct 2014
fresh:
A suggestive, subjective account of an orphan boy's apprenticeship to a dashing smuggler.
– Dave Kehr,
Chicago Reader,
1 Jan 2000
rotten:
But, golly, that screen play by Jan Lustig and Margaret Fitts is a thoroughly boneless thing -- a hodgepodge of odd and sprawling incidents without dramatic continuity or sense!
– Bosley Crowther,
New York Times,
25 Mar 2006
fresh:
A boy and a rakish smuggler search for a legendary lost diamond in a wonderfully stylised version of 19th century Cornwall.

fresh:
With mood and action the keynote of the John Houseman production, the direction by Fritz Lang plays both hard, developing considerable movement in several rugged action sequences without neglecting suspense.
