Critic Reviews of "Ace in the Hole"
San Francisco ChronicleAugust 29, 2014Ace in the Hole is a revelation, as timely now as when it was made.
Village VoiceJanuary 09, 2007A lurid pulp indictment of exploitation, opportunism, doctored intelligence, torture for profit, insatiable greed, and shady journalism.
Time OutFebruary 09, 2006As a diatribe against all that is worst in human nature, it has moments dipped in pure vitriol.
Chicago ReaderSeptember 09, 2002This 1951 film, about a cynical reporter who seizes on the plight of a man trapped in a mine shaft to promote his career, is cold, lurid, and fascinating, propelled by the same combination of moral outrage and sneaky admiration.
New York TimesSeptember 09, 2002Ace in the Hole is badly weakened by a poorly constructed plot, which depends for its strength upon assumptions that are not only naive but absurd.
Village VoiceSeptember 03, 2002By no means a great -- or even a particularly good -- movie, but its sustained nastiness shows a stunning disregard for box-office niceties.
eFilmCritic.comOctober 01, 2015"One hell of a whip-smart entertainment, sardonic and sad and always with the wisecracks."
Under the RadarSeptember 08, 2014Billy Wilder followed up Sunset Boulevard with this biting tale which cast a skeptical eye on the media and feels just as apropos in our age of 24-hour news.
Film Freak CentralJuly 27, 2014It's the most scabrous, uncompromised work from Billy Wilder, who never made a movie that wasn't kind of an asshole.
Scene-Stealers.comJuly 10, 2014Over 60 years later, Ace in the Hole has lost none of its sharpness. The only thing that's hard to believe about the movie is that Wilder and his co-screenwriters could have been this far ahead of the curve in their criticism of the media.
