Gripping drama.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Rating: 4/4 --
What happened? Who knows? The movie's strength is its ability to tantalize, to turn the case this way and that, so that the light of evidence falls in one way and then another. You tell me.

Chicago Sun-Times
What it all adds up to is something the film never quite seems prepared to address, but this is a fascinating look at all the secondary questions.

Chicago Reader
Reversal of Fortune is an often chilly movie, but the chill cuts to the bone.
Rolling Stone
It is a finely detailed manners study of the superwealthy, a drama of conflicting principles and values and an engrossing legal detective story.

Variety
This is a strange, unsatisfactory mixture of satire and docudrama which engages the mind and leaves the emotions intact.

Rating: B+ --
In his black satire, Kazan and Schroeder go beyond issues of guilt and morality, exposing and contesting the stereotypes of an Odd Couple: Von Bulow as rich, arrogant Eurotrash who needs thw work of a bright, hardworking and sweaty Jewish laywer.
