As remakes go, this "Brighton Rock" is probably unnecessary, but it's a well- acted, stylishly filmed thriller and a good story well told.
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times

There's a brutish beauty to the mean world of Brighton Rock that feels very '40s even in the '60s.
Tom Long, Detroit News

"Brighton Rock" doesn't rise to classic status, but it's an intriguing mood piece.
Calvin Wilson, St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Joffe commits the novice director's mistake of using every visual trick in the book and a few not yet recorded.
