There's a quite enjoyable yarn buried under the hollow laughter.
Stephen Garrett, Time Out
Fresh
The movie has never really been about gold but about character, and Bogart fearlessly makes Fred C. Dobbs into a pathetic, frightened, selfish man -- so sick we would be tempted to pity him, if he were not so undeserving of pity.
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Fresh
Greed, a despicable passion out of which other base ferments may spawn, is seldom treated in the movies with the frank and ironic contempt that is vividly manifested toward it in Treasure of Sierra Madre.
Bosley Crowther, New York Times
Fresh
The characters here are probed and thoroughly penetrated, not through psychoanalysis but through a crucible of human conflict, action, gesture and expressive facial tones.
Herb Schoenfeld, Variety
