Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A timeless romantic thriller that steeps us in one of those great artificial movie worlds that become more overpowering than reality itself.
– Michael Wilmington,
Chicago Tribune,

fresh:
Pepe le Moko, made in 1937, begins with that tinny, swooning French soundtrack music that conjures up European movies before the war, but it isn't until a few minutes later that you realize you're in for something special.
– Ty Burr,

fresh:
The French original has it all over on the Hollywood version in the way it conveys atmosphere.
– Mick LaSalle,

fresh:
Film noir as we know (and love) it is just around the corner from here.

fresh:
Interesting movement holds through the entirety. Life in the native quarter, with its squalor and intrigues, is particularly well presented and photographed.
