Critic Reviews of "The Third Man"
Boston GlobeAugust 06, 2015Krasker's camera reveals a dank, matte, defeated city - so dully vivid as to be a character unto itself - except that this Vienna becomes something altogether different seen at night or underground.
Seattle TimesJuly 02, 2015Reed and screenwriter Graham Greene let the story unfold slowly and deliberately, like the cigarette smoke that floats around the characters, and keep us guessing at every step.
Chicago TribuneJuly 02, 2015Like many, I have loved this thriller of conscience and betrayal most of my moviegoing life.
Salon.comJune 26, 2015"The Third Man" is important not just because of its technique but because of its theme ...
Time OutJune 24, 2015A lot funnier than you remember it, Carol Reed's immortal 1949 film noir seems to exist in the space between two worlds: an earlier time when thrillers were mostly serious affairs, and a future one, when such supremely witty entertainments felt passé.
Seanax.comMarch 09, 2017There's an element of show-off quality in The Third Man-it's a stylistic tour de force of bravura lighting, brilliant location shooting, dynamic imagery, and sharp angles throwing the world off kilter-but Reed rises to the challenge of Greene's script.
Monthly Film BulletinAugust 01, 2015By the very nature of its settings and story, there are occasional reminiscences of Lang and Hitchcock, but there is nothing borrowed or imitated. Stylistically, The Third Man is Reed's most impressive film.
eFilmCritic.comJuly 28, 2015Welles was a still-ridiculously young 34 when he played Harry, but he was probably born sounding 56...
culturevulture.netJuly 04, 2015The bombed buildings, piles of rubble and their evocative shadows form a haunting backdrop to the outdoor scenes, particularly at night. ... Greene's talent for dialogue and suspense shine. [It] has more twists and turns than a rollercoaster.
OregonianJuly 03, 2015It's an exciting experience, dazzling and entertaining and thought-provoking.
Willamette WeekJuly 01, 2015What really makes the film sing, though, isn't the jaunty and iconic zither score by Anton Karas. It's the film's groundbreaking visual aesthetic, which combines noir tropes with expressionism to create a visual wonderland of living shadows.
