Hitchcock's espionage thriller is a thoroughly enjoyable affair, complete with some of his most memorable set pieces.

Time Out
A two-hour demonstration of what movies can be, and so rarely are.

Washington Star
This film contains one of Hitchcock's most famous set pieces -- an assassination in the rain -- but otherwise remains a second-rate effort, as immensely enjoyable as it is.

Rating: 3.5/4 --
A fitfully crackerjack picture with astonishing mise-en-scène...some memorable set pieces to take advantage of same, and flashes of Hitchockian wit... [Criterion Blu-ray/DVD]

Rating: 3.5/4 --
It doesn't always proceed as smoothly as some of Hitchcock's best films, but it is never anything less than grandly entertaining.

Rating: 5/5 --
Into it Director Alfred Hitchcock, whose unmistakable stamp the picture bears, has packed about as much romantic action, melodramatic hullabaloo, comical diversion and illusion of momentous consequence as the liveliest imagination could conceive.

Product Description:
Classic Hitchcock. It is 1939 and Johnny Jones, a naive police reporter, is sent by his even more naive boss to cover a "crime" story that's unfolding in Europe: the potential outbreak of a second world war. Unprepared for the dangerous political landscape he's entering, Johnny manages to land smack in the middle of a spy ring that is masquerading as a peace organization.
