Rating: 3/4 --
von Sternberg turns what could have been little more than a typical espionage potboiler into another one of his luxuriant visual essays on Dietrich's smoldering screen presence and his own love of cinematic texture, depth, and tactility.

Rating: 3/4 --
Dietrich's fine performance and von Sternberg's visuals (that masquerade ball!) overcome both a shaky second half and a badly miscast Victor McLaglen.

Rating: 4/5 --
One of Sternberg's quirkiest films from his richest period.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Iit is perhaps the purest expression of Sternberg's belief in the triumph of aesthetics over mortality.

To try and describe Dietrich in Dishonored ... is a daunting exercise Marlene's character would no doubt look upon with a withering, contemptuous glance.
