Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Glaciers might be melting, the polar caps might be crumbling, but not even the passage of half a century has taken the frozen edge off this brilliantly icy film.
– Kenneth Turan,
Los Angeles Times,
29 Aug 2013
fresh:
A perfect storm of perversity, pre-Persona identity transference, prole pole-positioning and mutually assured psychological destruction, Joseph Losey's masterpiece immediately transformed the director from has-been Hollywood exile to European auteur.
– David Fear,
Time Out New York,

rotten:
The Servant is for the most part strong dramatic fare, though the atmosphere and tension is not fully sustained to the end.

fresh:
The performances are note-perfect and Pinter's script is smart, subversive and sly, lifting the lid on our age-old feudal hierarchy and having a good dig about inside.
– Tom Huddleston,

fresh:
It is a flesh-creeping demonstration of human destructiveness that Mr. Pinter and Mr. Losey are presenting in this film, and it is made all the more horrifying by the genteel surroundings in which it occurs.
– Bosley Crowther,
