With mood and action the keynote of the John Houseman production, the direction by Fritz Lang plays both hard, developing considerable movement in several rugged action sequences without neglecting suspense. Full Review
Variety

Rating: 2.5/4 -- It is not an entirely successful picture (though definitely far from dismissible), and Lang can be faulted mainly for his growing need to please himself rather than the public -- an attitude not subscribed to in most of his earlier works. Full Review
TV Guide

Rating: C -- The film is let down by a script that could never draw out its characters and make its predictable story build to anything more than what's anticipated. Full Review

A boy and a rakish smuggler search for a legendary lost diamond in a wonderfully stylised version of 19th century Cornwall. Full Review

The plot turns upon a lost diamond of great price, but mostly the film is a string of lively, unrelated escapades. Full Review
TIME Magazine
Oct 15, 2014
But, golly, that screen play by Jan Lustig and Margaret Fitts is a thoroughly boneless thing -- a hodgepodge of odd and sprawling incidents without dramatic continuity or sense! Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

Adventure and intrigue await all ye who venture into the small and sinister village of Moonfleet on the windswept moors of Dorsetshire. Here, young John Mohune (Jon Whiteley) arrives at his ancestral estate, now owned by the dashing, and mysterious Jeremy Fox (Stewart Granger). Out of love for the boy's mother, but against his better judgment, Fox grudgingly allows John to stay. He soon becomes attached to the boy, but his devotion is tested when John discovers a hidden smugglers' lair beneath the village graveyard and learns a shocking secret that could cost both him and Fox their lives.
