Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
It is a significant dud, and Grace Kelly's role has the virtue of making clearer the quality which excited so much attention in previous roles.
– Delmore Schwartz,
The New Republic,
23 Jan 2013
fresh:
Grant gives his role his assured style of acting, meaning the dialog and situations benefit. Kelly, too, dresses up the sequences in more ways than one.
– Variety Staff,
Variety,
26 Mar 2009
fresh:
One of the most lightweight (and not even particularly deceptively so) of Hitchcock's comedy-thrillers; a retreat from the implications of Rear Window into the realm of private jokes and sunny innuendo.
– Paul Taylor,
Time Out,
9 Feb 2006
fresh:
To Catch a Thief does nothing but give out a good, exciting time. If you'll settle for that at a movie, you should give it your custom right now.
– Bosley Crowther,
New York Times,
20 May 2003
fresh:
Alfred Hitchcock's fluffy 1955 exercise in light comedy, minimal mystery, and good-natured eroticism (the fireworks scene is a classic).
– Don Druker,
Chicago Reader,
1 Jan 2000
