"A nostalgic throwback to the genteel British murder mystery pix of the 1950s."

Variety
Variety"The big-name cast is a great, nostalgic throwback to the 1950s, when its players' names - Elizabeth Taylor, Rock Hudson, Kim Novak, Tony Curtis - graced giant theatre marquees."

TV Guide
TV Guide"Though it's obvious after five minutes that this is a complete no-no, the cinema equivalent of a bellyflop, it exercises a perverse fascination."

Time Out
Time Out"The Christie plot ends up so drastically foreshortened that you'd swear a reel must have been misplaced, although the sluggish direction of Guy Hamilton doesn't make one anxious to see it restored."

The Washington Post
The Washington Post"Both Miss Taylor and Miss Novak, as larger-than-life silver-screen rivals of a certain age, get all wound up for some fancy, high-toned tongue-lashings, but the material isn't up to their power."

The New York Times
The New York Times"[A] stunningly turgid mess."
